Hollywood Casino Bay St Louis Reopening
Spent a week at Simpson Bay Resort & Marina over Xmas week. Stayed in a nice 2 BR unit up the hill, walked by the casino multiple times every day. I had also played in this casino on a previous trip without incident. This time did not go so well, I was playing video poker and got a 4-of-a-kind for a small win, a few hundred dollars.

- Last updated Dec. The uncontrollable spread of COVID-19 has made it very difficult for the US casino industry to function in most states. Across the country, casinos are limiting the number of customers on their floors or are closing their doors to casual and experts bettors in an effort to prevent the spread of the coronavirus.

Hollywood Casino Gulf Coast (formerly Casino Magic Bay St. Louis) is a hotel-casino complex located in Bay St. Louis, Mississippi, owned by Gaming and Leisure Properties and operated by Penn National Gaming.
History[edit]
The property was first opened by Casino Magic Corp. as Casino Magic Bay St. Louis, which was largely destroyed by Hurricane Katrina. Its gaming barge floated over 7 mi (11 km) away and ended up in a forest. The ballroom at Casino Magic hosted the Heroes of Wrestling Pay-per-view in 1999 as well as two Ultimate Fighting Championship events UFC 15 and UFC 19.
Penn bought it from Pinnacle Entertainment in 2002 and renamed it Hollywood in 2006. [1][2]
