Lady Luck Casino Caruthersville is a stationary boat casino located in Caruthersville in Missouri, America. The actual boat itself is called the City of Caruthersville and is located on a 15 hectare site that also houses an enclosed pavilion for live shows. The boat itself is not on a river but instead is an example of a boat in a moat, a replica riverboat built expressly for the purpose of housing a casino and standing on blocks surrounded by water.
The casino was originally owned by Aztar Corporation, which was bought out by Columbia Sussex in 2007. Columbia Sussex was unfortunately not able to acquire a licence to run the Lady Luck Casino Caruthersville, and so promptly threatened to close the casino down in order to hold on to its takeover of Aztar. The casino went up for sale and was bought by Isle of Capri in 2007 for about $45 million. The boat and the surrounding land were rebranded to Lady Luck Casino Caruthersville in 2008.
