Citat fra Dan Mcquad:
The Taj has lasted longer than The Beatles did, but it hasn't had quite as much success as the Fab Four. The casino dubbed "The Eighth Wonder of the World" - a term pro wrestling had used previously to describe Andre the Giant - was finished primarily by financing the purchase with junk bonds. And the casino had issues. "The shortage of funds was obvious inside the building," Johnston writes in Temples of Chance. "The long second-floor hallways leading to the New Delhi Deli and the ballrooms were supposed to have marble columns. Instead they had been hastily covered with pink wallpaper. Many rooms were a mess, with hanging rods laying on closet floors, curtains that would not close and keys that did not match the doors weeks after the grand opening." More than 200 contractors, the Inquirer reported, were owed $72 million.
