Catfish Bend Casino revenues for 2024 are down compared to last year, but members of the Southeast Iowa Regional Riverboat Commission (SIRRC) learned during their meeting Tuesday afternoon that the dip in revenues doesn’t mean the business is doing poorly.
“The only thing consistent right now about our business is that it’s been inconsistent,” Catfish Bend general manager Rob Higgins told the Commission. “The whole state been that way…
“Coming out of COVID, 2021 was the best year we’d ever had. 2022 was the second-best year we ever had. 2023 was very close to being as good as 2022. And 2024 is falling behind that. So, our standards are very high, which is the way we want it.”
