Stories circulating on the internet and word-of-mouth (or, more accurately, word-of-Tweet) say that Binion’s is closing. I don’t know if you consider this good news or bad news but that’s not entirely true. The hotel is closing. The coffee shop is closing. The keno parlor is closing. But the casino will remain open . . . at least for now.
