Grandkids going to Independence Bowl. It looks like there is absolutely nothing to see/do other then game.

Lived there '80 - '82, before the cassinos. Years later we were driving through and my daughter commented "Oh, look at all the pretty lights!" I told her she needed to understand that they don't pay for those lights by people going in and winning.

If you can get into Herby K's to eat, do so. But only go during daylight hours.

Went there back in '96 for bachelor party and BU game. Spent a little time in the casinos but more time at the game and strip club. One of the attendees managed to walk across the railroad bridge across the river in the wee hours of the morning.

I'm too rich to hang out at Shreveport casinos.

I prefer the flashier, more cosmopolitan crowds in Reno and Tribal Casinos across Oklahoma.

I haven't been in a few years, but the casinos in Shreveport didn't impress with their gaming or facilities. Going to Louisiana Downs gives you casino games, sportsbook, and horse racing. It may not satisfy the high rollers, but it isn't a bad way to spend a weekend in northern Louisiana.https://ladowns.com/

I'm sorry...

Horseshoe might be your best bet.

eat at Superior Grill.
gamble at El Dorado/Bally's.
stay somewhere else.

I liked the Margaritaville Casino the best(4 years ago@).Lots of flash and color(and I won a little)..As to food,Binions Steakhouse at the Horseshoe is excellent.Blind Tiger has very good Cajun and Creole.And,the bread pudding was wonderful.

This you?
