History[edit]

Advanced Patent Technology, a slot machine maker and slot route operator, announced plans in 1979 to build a hotel and casino, with the hotel to be managed by Ramada.^[3] Construction began in October, as a joint venture with John Fulton, a Southern California restaurateur^[4] and the casino was opened on November 10, 1980.^[5]

In 1983, a preliminary agreement was reached to sell the casino to a group including attorney William Morris and Circus Circus Enterprises executives William Bennett and William Pennington for $1.6 million^[6] but Morris quit the deal a month later.^[7] The next year, Circus Circus bought the casino for $4 million, and made plans to move it to make room for an expansion of its neighboring Edgewater Laughlin.^[8]

Plans for a new Colorado Belle hotel and casino were unveiled in 1985^[9] and it opened on July 1, 1987, at a cost of $80 million.^[10]

Circus Circus Enterprises later became Mandalay Resort Group in 1999 and was bought by MGM Mirage in 2005.
