Blackfeet Nation brings a bit of Vegas to Montana


The Blackfeet Nation of Montana is making a big splash with the opening of its new casino today.

Ten Elvis impersonators will drop from the sky at 5pm. Along with feathered showgirls and dealers in tuxes, the tribe is hoping to bring a bit of Las Vegas to the Glacier Peaks Casino.

"I didn't ever expect to see showgirls in Browning," Chairman Earl Old Person told The Great Falls Tribune.

The 30,000-square-foot casino features Class II and Class III machines. The $7 million facility is located near the entrance to Glacier National Park.
