Sam's Town Gambling Hall, Kansas City was a riverboat casino in Kansas City, Missouri, docked at I-435 and MO-210. It was also owned and operated by Boyd Gaming Corporation.

History

In September of 1995, Sam's Town Gambling Hall, Kansas City opened as the third casino under the brand, and the 5th casino in the Kansas City area.

In February of 1996 Sam's Town dropped the admission fee that had run as high as $9 per person. This fee was used in the past to pay for the $2 per person fee the casinos were required to pay to the state.

After poor results, Boyd closed this location in July of 1998, selling many of its assets to Harrah's Entertainment for $12.5 million. The boat itself is no longer docked at the property, but the former parking garage and other structures are currently being used by nearby Cerner.
