It's been a rough couple of years for Connecticut's two federally recognized tribes but they are looking forward to a big Labor Day weekend at their casinos.
The Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation and the Mohegan Tribe are hosting big-name concerts like Donna Summer and Aerosmith and they are promoting a number of special events. Hurricane Earl might put a damper on the festivities but executives aren't too worried.

In July, both tribes reported an increase in their slot machine wins, a first in more than two years.
