MGM Grand Inc.
3600 Las Vegas Boulevard South, Las Vegas, Nevada 89109, USA
MGM Grand Inc. was a pioneering American gaming and hospitality company founded by legendary businessman Kirk Kerkorian. Incorporated in 1980 as a spin-off from the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer film studio, the company was created to own and operate the original MGM Grand Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, which opened in 1973 as the largest hotel in the world. Over the subsequent two decades, MGM Grand Inc. grew into one of the most dominant forces on the Las Vegas Strip, developing or acquiring landmark properties including the MGM Grand Las Vegas (the current megaresort opened in 1993), The Mirage, Bellagio, and Treasure Island. The company was known for its grand-scale resort designs, high-limit gaming, and integrated entertainment offerings. In 2010, under the leadership of then-CEO Jim Murren, the company rebranded as MGM Resorts International to reflect its global expansion and diversified portfolio beyond the historic MGM Grand brand. Today, as MGM Resorts International, the company is the largest casino operator in the world by revenue, with 31 properties across the U.S. and Macau, but its corporate DNA originates from the MGM Grand Inc. entity.

Lake Fron, Inc. d/b/a Ocala Jai‑Alai
4601 W. County Road 318, Orange Lake, Florida
Lake Fron, Inc., doing business as Ocala Jai‑Alai (also known as Ocala Gainesville Poker and Jai‑Alai), operated a historic jai‑alai fronton and poker room in Orange Lake, Florida, approximately 15 miles north of Ocala. The facility opened in 1973 as a branch of the Miami fronton, one of 15 to 20 jai‑alai frontons then operating in the United States. For decades, it offered live jai‑alai matches, pari‑mutuel betting, and later evolved to focus on poker tournaments, off‑track betting, and simulcast horse racing as the popularity of jai‑alai declined. The venue was a local landmark, hosting concerts, wrestling events, and even high school graduations. In 2016, the property was transferred from Lake Fron, Inc. to Ocala Breeders’ Sales Real Estate Holdings, LLC. The business ceased all operations on October 28, 2023, with patrons directed to a new gaming facility, Ocala Bets, located at 1781 SW 60th Ave. in Ocala. The closure marked the end of a 50‑year era for the Orange Lake fronton, which had already shifted its primary focus to poker and simulcast wagering in its later years.
