History
Cannery Casino Resorts took over management of the Regent Casino in 2002 under an agreement with JW Marriott owner Hotspur Resorts, and completely renovated it to re-brand it as Rampart Casino. The renovation included redesigning the gaming floor, acquiring new slot equipment and constructing three new restaurants.
Cannery's management agreement expires in March 2012. Hotspur opted not to renew the agreement, and will instead combine the casino and hotel under its own management, with the help of consulting services from Affinity Gaming. Michael Gaughan, Jr., the son of casino magnate Michael Gaughan, will be the property's general manager.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“I saw the Arab map.
It resembled a mare shuffling on,
dragging its history like saddlebags,
nearing its tomb and the pitch of hell.”

“You that would judge me do not judge alone
This book or that, come to this hallowed place
Where my friends’ portraits hang and look thereon;
Ireland’s history in their lineaments trace;
Think where man’s glory most begins and ends
And say my glory was I had such friends.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
