Developer behind Fairfax casino effort tried to lobby billionaire on board

An attempt to bring a commercial casino to the Tysons area was unsuccessful, and the real estate development company behind it was unable to entice a billionaire to back the project. A new arena for the owners of the NHL Capitals and NBA Wizards was part of the bribe that was abandoned.


The locals are deeply opposed to the project. Nevertheless, the governor is moving forward with what many political analysts perceive to be the Republican attempt to establish a legacy development.
