Description: Penn National Gaming Inc. was incorporated in Pennsylvania in 1982 as PNRC Corp. and adopted its current name in 1994, when the company went public. Penn National Gaming acts as an owner and manager of gaming and pari-mutuel properties, including harness horse racetracks, greyhound dog racetracks, off-track wagering facilities and account wagering/Internet wagering. Headquartered in Wyomissing, Pa., the company owns or manages 19 facilities in North America, including Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Louisiana, Maine, Mississippi, Missouri, New Jersey, New Mexico, Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Ontario.
