March 2013 resulted in the second highest revenue ever for Pennsylvania slots. The most revenue ever occurred in March 2012.

“It’s probably because you do have the beginning of the upturn in weather normally that probably allows people to feel more safe in traveling,” said Doug Harbach, Spokesperson for the Pennsylvania Gaming Control said.

Pennsylvania’s 11 casinos witnessed a 1.6 percent decline in revenue compared to March 2012 where the total earned was $229.

Earlier in the year, Pennsylvania overtook Atlantic City as the USA’s 2^nd largest gambling destination.
