big difference is that Standing Rock, Fort Berthold and Spirit Lake all have casinos tied to legit recreational destinations with Devils Lake, Lake Sakakawea and Lake Oahe.  And Three Affiliated makes way more on oil than on their casino.  Turtle Mountain can make a claim that the GF area is in their ancestral lands, so I think it has a viable shot.  It would definitely be a big benefit from Grand Forks, so I hope it becomes a reality.

Spirit Lake weighs in...

They are the closest to GF, so if anyone had opposed, that makes sense.  I could see them partnering to make problems go away.

Dakota Magic (Hankinson) and Prairie Knights (Standing Rock) would be toast if a casino like the GF proposal opened in Fargo or Bismarck.  They have to have major concerns if the door is opened to a 3rd party tribe opening a casino which would essentially put them out of business.
