Mississippi Choctaws prepare for Monday opening of new casino



The Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians opens the doors to the Bok Homa Casino on Monday morning.

The tribe spent $18 million on the 27,000 square-foot facility. It's located in the Bogue Homa Community, away from the tribe's main reservation.

Wayne Newton, also known as "Mr. Las Vegas," will provide the entertainment for the opening ceremony.
