CIB Watch

March 18th, 2009 at 4:16 pm by Jim Shella under Jim Shella's Political Blog

Curious sight of the day in the Statehouse:  Indiana Pacers executives Jim Morris and Greg Schenkel standing outside House Minority Leader Brian Bosma’s office.

There is no bill before the General Assembly addressing the budget shortfall at the Capital Improvement Board but there is lots of talk that lawmakers will seek ways to cover the operating deficits at Conseco Fieldhouse and Lucas Oil Stadium before they go home (can you say downtown casino?)  There can be no better explanation for Morris and Schenkel to be on the third floor.

For the record, Morris said the purpose of the visit was simply to pay courtesy calls on legislative leaders.

    Bauer, Bosma and the Governor need to be put on the record regarding CIB/Pacers/Colts.

    Aren’t they all on record for opposing casino in Indy and Fort Wayne?

  2. A casino in Indy is never going to happen.
