Feeling luck? Then roll the dice on landing a job in the entertainment industry at places like Mohegan Sun.

Caleb Silver, of Investopedia, says Connecticut entertainment employment is strong and beating out tri-state neighbors and places around the country.

At Mohegan Sun, it's all about food and fun.

"We have so much to offer," says Kimberly Noto, vice president of marketing at Mohegan Sun. "We have two beautiful hotel towers. We have over 70 restaurants, bars and shops."

New this summer is a new outdoor space that features a sun patio bar. And to keep bringing guests back, Mohegan is going all in on adding to the venue and making sure there is a packed line up for the arena.

Tesla is coming to the casino also.

"We are rolling out a Tesla electric vehicle showroom - the first of its kind in Connecticut," says Noto.

Noto says the casino is a second home to its 5,000 employees.

"We have a very large property to support and wonderful team members who do that," says Noto.
