The Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma will host a grand opening for the $300 million Choctaw Casino and Resort tomorrow.

The facility is located in Durant. Construction took 22 months.

"This is something like you'll never see in Southeastern Oklahoma. This is nice as Vegas, Shreveport, Bossier. Everywhere you want to go there's no casino nicer," dealer manager Jeramey Standridge told KXII-TV.

The casino features more than 3,000 electronic gaming machines and about 40 card game tables.
