That’s true in Las Vegas as well - the sportsbooks have always been a modest amenity. Of The Temporary’s new Circa-operated sportsbook, Lee said, “It’s not a big positive, but it does bring people into the property.
“The property continues to mature and is doing quite well.” It grossed $7.3 million, behind Rivers Des Plaines and Bally’s Casino in Chicago. Looking ahead to fourth-quarter earnings, Lee said The Temporary slowed in October, a traditionally sluggish month. Full House is also rolling out a new Chicagoland-targeted ad campaign that “emphasizes the excitement inside the tent.” The steakhouse, Lee added, will be important for New Year’s Eve table-game players and high rollers. The CFO cited “pretty meaningful sequential improvement” in Waukegan and said he expects The Temporary to have its high-end steakhouse in operation by year’s end.
