He was when they were going to license a limited number of operations for extended casino gaming.
Problem was that the supporters of those casinos wanted to pick specific winners, which violates the NH Constitution.
They could auction a limited number of licenses, but could not choose the sites.
But the purpose of buying the NHIS was to move the NASCAR races to venues with greater revenue. NASCAR stopped him from removing all the races.
At that time, Boomers were making NASCAR attendance surge... but not enough in NH to fill the even the limited number of seats for two events.
Not even sure the single event fills up at this point in time.
