Navajo Nation President Joe Shirley Jr. says patrons of the tribe’s first casino injected $1.2 million into slot machines on opening day.
The head of the tribe’s gaming enterprise, Bob Winter, would not confirm the amount but says it far exceeded expectations. The Fire Rock Casino, just east of Gallup, opened to the public on Nov. 19.
