Bally's President and CEO George Papanier says having a nearly 1,500-room property on the Las Vegas Strip is a key step for the Rhode Island-based company.
The transaction is expected to close early next year. Bally's Corp. does not own Bally's Las Vegas on the Strip. It is owned and operated by Caesars Entertainment Inc.
