Fitzgeralds Gaming was a gaming company based in Reno, Nevada, that operated four casinos under the Fitzgeralds brand. It filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in December 2000, and subsequently sold all its properties. ==History== After Lincoln Fitzgerald died in 1981, the Lincoln Management Corporation was formed to run his two Reno casinos, Fitzgeralds and the Nevada Club, under a contract with Fitzgerald's widow, Meta. In 1986, Lincoln exercised an option to buy Fitzgeralds for $26.25 million. In 1987, the Lincoln Group bought the Sundance casino in downtown Las Vegas from Moe Dalitz, renaming it as Fitzgeralds. In 1988, it bought Harolds Club, the last remaining casino in Howard Hughes's gambling empire, from the Hughes Corporation. In 1993, the company made a bid for the last available gaming license in the Kansas City area, proposing a $145 million casino in Sugar Creek, Missouri. The license was awarded to Station Casinos instead, to build what is now the Ameristar Casino Kansas City. Station was later investigated for improper contact with the president of the gaming commission, and Fitzgeralds sued and received a $38 million settlement in 2004. In 1994, Lincoln was reorganized as Fitzgeralds Gaming Corp. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fitzgeralds Gaming」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
