I realized this as I walked through SugarHouse to go see a stand-up show from Trevor Noah on Saturday night in the casino’s new Event Center. Yes, the expansion included a giant parking garage. Hugo’s Frog Bar & Chop House is scheduled to open sometime in the near future. It’s expanded the gaming floor - the casino has an actual poker room now, instead of just a “poker tent” - and the whole place has been refreshed. The casino is in the process of a $165 million expansion. For a while, SugarHouse’s slogan might as well have been: “Sad, even for a casino.” It was just a slots barn at first only recently is it becoming more of a destination. Unfortunately, among my group of friends, I might be the only one to feel that way. That includes the sole casino in Philadelphia, SugarHouse. I enjoy the thrill of pretending that next small bet or slot pull will lead me to riches, I enjoy the people watching and I enjoy the complimentary drinks. I’m not a huge gambler, but I like places where you can gamble. Photo | Matt Bishop for SugarHouse Casino
