State lawmakers legalized gambling in Louisiana 25 years ago, with Harrah's Casino in New Orleans being the only one allowed to operate on land. Meanwhile, other gambling sites had to operate out. Louisiana has 15 riverboat casinos, under a law enacted in 1991. The casinos are in many ways still operating under the regulatory structure of that law.
