Olivia Ali: How long have you been covering Harrah’s and gaming in general?
Howard Stutz: I started in the late 1980s, covering the casino industry when it was really just Nevada and New Jersey, and then followed Harrah’s through all its changes, from when it bought Caesars Entertainment, then took on the name Caesars Entertainment. Harrah s is just part of, really, Caesars Entertainment s collection of casino properties throughout the U.S. in 15 states.
Ali: Take us back to the beginning in the 1930s. When did Harrah s first open and what was it like back then?
Stutz: Harrah s Reno was the start of the whole Harrah s chain. It was the original place where Bill Harrah started his bingo parlor. He expanded it to a hotel-casino there, and it became the basis of the whole Harrah s chain. There are 17 Harrah s branded casinos in 11 states. It was the start of what really became one of the flagship companies in the gaming industry.
