The name change is official...Casino Aztar is now Tropicana Evansville!

Tropicana Entertainment, Inc., based in Las Vegas, Nevada, is a publicly traded company that owns and operates eight casinos and resorts in Indiana, Louisiana, Mississippi, Nevada, New Jersey and Aruba.

General Manager Ward Shaw commented that, "This exciting transition will better leverage the 'Tropicana' brand to attract new guests from outlying regions, as well as symbolize the continued guest improvements that we've made over the last several years for those customers that haven't visited us in some time."
