Penn National Closing Tunica Casino

Only six Tunica County, Mississippi casinos will remain open when Penn National's Resorts Casino Tunica (l.) closes June 30, the third area casino to shutter since 2014. Penn National officials said the company will try to place the property's 200 employees at its two other Tunica casinos, 1st Jackpot and Hollywood Casino Tunica. The closure is likely tied to the legalization of casino gaming in nearby Arkansas.
