Maureen has been a strong proponent of Atlantic City for years. We know she'll bring her valuable experience and vast body of knowledge to our team in promoting the city and our efforts in supporting the Atlantic City Convention Center and Boardwalk Hall.
atlantic authority peers promoting proud recognized rewarded team work
I'm proud that our team has been recognized by their peers and rewarded for all the outstanding work they do for the authority in promoting Atlantic City.
atlantic certainly compelling grow maintain market people reason
I think there's certainly a realization that if we were going to not only maintain our market share, but grow our market share, we need to give people a compelling reason to come to Atlantic City.
change main role
Our main role is to change perceptions of the city. We can't do 12 different things.
date
Going into (Thursday), I - we all - thought that's what we're going to be hearing, that they had a date for us.
america events miss moved valuable
Certainly, events like Miss America are valuable to the community. But overall, I think we've moved on.
atlantic city customers machines regular slot
We want them to be regular customers of Atlantic City before slot machines come into Pennsylvania.
anybody knew
Yes, we were all shocked. I don't think anybody really knew it was coming.
art ask caught date fact gotten guard maybe question suggested
We were all caught off guard a little bit. One question I never got to ask Art (McMaster) was 'when did you come to this conclusion?' In hindsight, maybe the fact that we hadn't gotten a date yet should have suggested something. But I think we all thought we were working to keep it here.
community fabric nearly sad
It was a sad day for the city; she's been a fabric of this community for nearly 85 years.
blow contract knew
Again, we knew they were in default, but it wasn't something we were going to blow up the contract for. We thought we could make it work.
We were not going to go there. We know it would have put them under.
atlantic city disney dominate liberty saying slight statue
I'm not saying we should dominate the new game, but the Boardwalk should be one of the stops. Sure, put in the Statue of Liberty and Disney World and other places, but it's a slight to not have the Atlantic City boardwalk as one of the stops.
anybody argue breach comparable network
They were technically in breach then, too, because they didn't have a network contract. I don't think anybody would argue that CMT is comparable to a network.
