Celebrity Hotel and Casino in Deadwood to Close, Putting Two Dozen People Out of Work

Celebrity Hotel and Casino, a popular gambling spot on Main Street in Deadwood, is closing its doors due to "insufficient gambling revenue."

General Manager Ken Gienger says the property is being turned over to a bank and people with reservations are being notified of the closing.

The business is owned by a Nebraska man and his daughter and employed 15 full-time and eight part-time workers. It opened 20 years ago.
