We knew for a long time that they slowed down construction, but now it looks like it is official. At the game summit yesterday:

John Payne, president of Harrah’s Entertainment Central Division, said construction has stopped on Margaritaville Casino, yet singer/songwriter Jimmy Buffett remains tied to the resort.

“We are still passionate about the project,” Payne said. The company eventually hopes to get the resort built in Biloxi, he said. “We’ll know more in six to nine months.”

We will post more details when we get them.
