The casino war here may have been won by the city government, which had opposed its operation. However, Cheryl Ann Ruiz Arnold, corporate communications officer of Thunderbird Resorts, said 60 percent of customers of their casino in nearby San Fernando City in La Union come from Baguio. The casino attracts from 1,000 to 2,000 patrons daily, said Arnold. Thunderbird is the same company that wanted to open a casino in Baguio five years ago but the thunder against it was stronger here.
