In August of 2012, Resorts Casino Hotel owner Morris Bailey turned to Mohegan Gaming Advisors (MGA) in a bid to revive the fortunes of Atlantic City's original casino. MGA, a subsidiary of the Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority (MTGA) which owns Mohegan Sun Casino, assumed management of Resorts and made an initial investment in the property. Together, Bailey and MGA also placed a strategic bet on Resorts' future - gambling that an investment of more than $70 million in casino upgrades, including the addition of a $35 million Margaritaville complex, would lure new audiences to the casino. Margaritaville at Resorts Casino launched in the summer of 2013 with a ribbon-cutting presided over by New Jersey Governor Chris Christie and a Jimmy Buffett concert on the beach that drew more than 50,000 fans. Right from the start of its overflow Memorial Day Weekend opening, it became clear that bets on Margaritaville and Resorts were paying off. What's more, Resorts' focus on Atlantic City's beachfront heritage may offer a potential blueprint for gradual improvement elsewhere in Atlantic City.
