HISTORY AND FACTS ABOUT SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA CASINOS
A Note About Age
Indian Casinos
- In the late 1990"s many Indian
casinos in California were open to age 18 and over. However, times change.
Most Southern California Indian Casinos have changed their age limit to
21 years or older. Some casinos are open to age 18 and over. Some casinos
will allow people under 18/21 to enter selected portions of the buildings.
This policy varies by casino and might be restricted to certain operating
hours of the day. Other Indian Casinos enforce an age limit throughout
the facility.
Card Casinos - Card Clubs are limited to card
games and you must be 21 years of age or older.
Alcohol - Must be 21 years of age or older to
drink alcohol in California therefore the casino bars and many lounges
are restricted to 21.
24 Hours
Most Indian Casinos in Southern California are open 24
hours. The casinos can get particularly busy on the weekends (late afternoons
and evenings) as well as holidays when both the locals and the tourists
decide to visit the casinos.
Indian Gaming Regulatory Act
Congress adopted the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA)
(P.L. 100-497, 102 Stat. 2475), signed on 17 Oct 1988. The Act established
a complex system to authorize and regulate the gaming and gambling enterprises
of American Indian Tribes. On 25 Feb 1987 the US Supreme Court handed down
its decision in California vs. Cabazon Band of Mission Indians.
Proposition 1A
Proposition 1A was ratified by the voters of California
in March 2000. Approved by more than 64 percent of the voters, the measure
amended the California constitutional prohibition against "Nevada style"
casinos. California tribal casinos do not reveal their gross income from
gambling but some experts say it could be $4 billion a year which approaches
the take on the Las Vegas Strip or in Atlantic City.
349 Slots
Why 349 slots? That doesn"t sound like very many. The
California"s gambling compacts has a provision that classifies tribes with
fewer than 350 machines as non-gaming. This allows them to collect the
same funds from a revenue-sharing pool as those with no casinos. The difference
between 350 slots and 349 slots can easier be over a million dollars a
year.
Valley View Casino and Harrah"s Rincon Casino Get More Slots
Valley View Casino added 428 machines. Harrah"s Rincon
Casino added 400 more machines. Licenses were granted Monday 5 October
2009. Those numbers increased each to the maximum of 2,000 slots under
deals signed with the state in 1999. Barona Casino and Sycuan Casino
already had 2,000 slots each. Pala Casino and Viejas Casino can have an
unlimited number of slots and they each have over 2,000. They operate under
newer agreements with the state.

HISTORY ...

14 story hotel, and 38,800 convention center, cabaret lounge, Eagle"s
Nest Lounge at the top of the hotel and seven restaurants. The age limit

In November 2004, expansion added some gaming area, food
court, and a sports-themed restaurant.
In August 2008, the 18-hole championship golf course -
Journey at Pechanga, was opened to the public. The gold clubhouse was opened
in November 2008.
In June 2011, the newly remodeled buffet opened. The Pechanga
Buffet has undergone a complete remodel and officially re-opened to the

September 2011. Bamboo, the new 134-seat Asian restaurant,
officially opens to the public on 1 September 2011. The Bamboo asian restaurant

a total of 2,885 players and there were three rounds. The free event was
open to anyone 21 years of age or older. The top 300 players won $100,000
in cash and EasyPlay. More than 1,100 slot machines (out of the total of
over 3,800 slots at Pechanga) from five different manufacturers on the
Pechanga floor used Bally Technologies" software to become tournament machines
for the event. This allowed the players to compete head to head with 1,100
