Louisiana is known for some of the best casinos in the US with the riverboat casinos becoming more and more popular for their novelty and fun. There are a number of different casino riverboats in Louisiana in addition to mainland casinos. In 2012 the revenues of Louisiana from casino gambling were made up of mainly riverboat casino revenues that made up $1.6 billion of the total revenue. The riverboats are located in two main locations, Baton Rouge and New Orleans, the Baton Rouge boats are bringing in most of the revenue for this State.
