The presence of an on-site internationally known Wolfgang Puck restaurant also lifts the casino beyond the ordinary.Ĭonstruction at Hoosier Park Racing and Casino had a head start of several months on Indiana Live!, but its plans were never as grandiose as the ones envisioned by Indiana Downs, owner of the casino and the horse track in Shelbyville. The overtly attractive 'Angel' cocktail servers teamed with the highly professional appearance and manner of the casino's management by The Cordish Company Gaming Operations from New Jersey add to its high-end appeal. The marketing for Indiana Live! pushes the concept that 'Las Vegas has come to Shelbyville,' and the decor is bold and bright, complementing the flashing slot machines. Naturally, a temporary casino is smaller and has less to offer than a permanent one, but if atmosphere is considered, one could argue that Indiana Live! comes out on top, even in its temporary version. Comparing the temporary Indiana Live! Casino to the recently completed permanent casino at Hoosier Park in Anderson really isn't a fair comparison.
