Some Detroit businesses near the casinos are worried that they might
lose customers from Ohio when a new casino in Toledo opens its' doors.
It's
a taco Tuesday at Loco's, next to Greektown. Business is booming! There
is not a seat to be had. The place is packed with Blue Cross Blue
Shield and GM workers.
Assistant Manager Belinda says, even
though casino comps are a big factor, she is not worried about losing
out-of-state customers.
"Not at all.. There are other restaurants, the Tigers, Football."
Just outside of Loco's is a cab stand. One taxi driver predicts that he will lose anywhere from 30 to 40% of his business.
