Title: Hard Rock Hotel and Cafe coming to Hartford, Connecticut
Post by: ynkeesfn82 on December 14, 2015, 11:39:12 PM
Hartford, Connecticut is getting a Hard Rock Hotel and Cafe. It's going to be built across from the new Yard Goats Baseball stadium. It's supposed to open in 2018 and will feature a rooftop pool, spa, and gym.

The Rivers Casino here is located just steps from Heinz Field and PNC Park.

So......we can place a casino virtually next-door to a pro baseball stadium.
And MLB can hold a minority ownership stake in DraftKings.com.

....but Pete Rose's lifetime ban can't be lifted WHY exactly??

Somehow he recently landed a job with Fox Sports' MLB division.

He made bets on baseball while he played for the Reds in the 1980s. The practice of betting on baseball while playing is illegal.
