In South Carolina, within one week after a judge ruled a ban Georgetown County of casino boats was unconstitutional, a well known video gambling operative has announced  that he plans to bring a gambling boat near Georgetown. Also, the gambling boat operative who sued Georgetown in the first place, announced his desire to start a casino boat.

Collins Entertainment owner, Fred Collins, who also owns a large gambling boat, has written a letter to Georgetown County expressing his interest in running casino cruises. At this time, it is not detailed where and when the cruises would run, or where the boat would be docked.

Last week, Circuit Judge Jackson Gregory ruled that a county ban on such a business was unconstitutional, giving way for additional boats to deem the county as a place to develop casino boats.

Judge Gregory stated that the county couldn't ban the casino boats, simply because the state of South Carolina itself has no ban on such boats.
