MASHANTUCKET, CT (December 15, 2020) – Foxwoods® Resort Casino is reporting slot revenue of $21.8 million for the month of November 2020. This results in a $5.4 million direct payment to the State of Connecticut in accordance with the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation’s long-standing slot revenue contribution agreement. Since 1993, the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation has deposited over $4 billion of Foxwoods’ slot revenue directly into the state’s budget fund. 

The resort continues to see positive feedback and adherence from guests and team members on its extensive safety measures, including temperature checks, mandatory face masks, plexiglass installations and 24/7 sanitization of the property. Foxwoods has also maintained limiting the number of guests to 25% of the resort’s total capacity in order to allow for proper social distancing while on property.

“As we move into the winter season, we’re continuing to stay focused on successfully keeping Foxwoods Resort Casino a safe, secure and fun destination for our guests and team members,” said Jason Guyot, Interim CEO and SVP of Resort Operations. “We are constantly reevaluating and enhancing health protocols and remain committed to offering new and safe experiences for our guests to enjoy.”

Voted the best casino outside of Las Vegas by USA Today’s 10Best Readers’ Choice awards, Foxwoods is constantly looking to provide an unmatched experience for all guests in the safest way possible - most recently by partnering with DraftKings to set the stage to deliver access for online sports betting ahead of the anticipated launch of legal sports betting in Connecticut, subject to necessary legislative and regulatory approvals. With this alliance, DraftKings is also now the official daily fantasy sports partner of Foxwoods Resort Casino, offering online promotions, contests and other integrated digital experiences to enhance fan engagement.
