Pennsylvania has earned its first $1 million of new gambling revenue after Gov. Tom Wolf signed legislation authorizing a major expansion of gambling.
The first million that went into the state coffers came from Valley Forge Casino, according to The Associated Press.
Valley Forge reportedly paid a $1 million fee in order to ease the gambling restrictions imposed on people who aren’t taking part in other amenities there.
Before the new gambling law was enacted, the casino floor of Valley Forge was limited only to guests, membership holders and patrons. The limits were set by the facility’s “resort” category license.
