Stateline casinos brought in more money in July compared to the previous year, which is the opposite of what happened overall in Nevada.

Statewide gaming revenue dropped 8 percent, according to the Gaming Control Board. Nevada brought in $925.7 million this July, whereas in 2012 the figure was $1.005 billion.

On the South Shore the casinos’ take of $32 million was an increase of 9 percent. July is often a good month for Stateline because of the Fourth of July holiday and American Century Championship celebrity golf tournament.

    August’s numbers will be interesting to see if the drop in tourists for the week preceding the Labor Day weekend due to smoke is outweighed by the spike in the number of people seeking the indoors comfort of the casino. Despite the second hand smoke already there.

    The hot weather in July kept people out of Vegas, and sent them to Tahoe!
