History[edit]

The casino opened on April 28, 1995 as Casino Aztar.[2] It was built by Aztar Corp. at a cost of $55 million.[3]

Aztar was acquired by Columbia Sussex in January 2007. Columbia Sussex, unable to obtain a casino license in the state, immediately put the property up for sale and threatened to close it down in order to preserve the takeover deal with Aztar.[4]

In 2007, Isle of Capri Casinos purchased the casino from Columbia Sussex for about $45 million.[5] Casino Aztar Caruthersville was re-branded Lady Luck Casino Caruthersville on June 10, 2008.[6] Isle of Capri was acquired by Eldorado Resorts in 2017.[7]

In 2019, Eldorado sold the casino, along with two other properties, to Century Casinos and Vici Properties.[8] Century bought the casino's operating business for $12 million,[9] while Vici bought the land and buildings for $67 million and leased them to Century.[10] Century stated that the casino would be renamed as Century Casino Caruthersville, and that they might purchase a small neighboring hotel.[11][12]
