                      NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                     (unaudited)

1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICES

    BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS - The accompanying unaudited
consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the
instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they
do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles and should be read in connection with the 1995
Annual Report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on the
Registrant's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1995.  The
accounting polices utilized in the preparation of the consolidated financial
information herein are the same as set forth in such annual report except as
modified for interim accounting policies which are within the guidelines
established in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 28.

    INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION - The Consolidated Balance Sheet at September
30, 1995 has been taken from the audited financial statements at that date.  The
interim financial information is unaudited.  In the opinion of management, all
adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of its financial
position at June 30, 1996, the results of operations for the three and nine
months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 and the cash flows for the nine months ended
June 30, 1996 and 1995 have been included.  The Company's operations are
seasonal and thus operating results for the three and nine months ended June 30,
1996 should not be considered indicative of the results that may be expected for
the fiscal year ending September 30, 1996.

    RECLASSIFICATIONS - Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1995
financial statements to conform to the 1996 presentation.

    The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
the Company and all of its subsidiary companies.  All significant intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

3.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

    On November 24, 1993, Boomtown completed the private placement of $103.5
million of 11.5% First Mortgage Notes due November 2003 (the "Notes") with
detachable warrants to purchase 472,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock at
$21.19 per share.  The warrants expire in November 1998.  Interest on the Notes
is payable semi-annually.  The Notes will be redeemable at the option of the
Company, in whole or in part, on or after November 1, 1998, at a premium to the
face amount ($103.5 million) which decreases on each subsequent anniversary
date, plus accrued interest to the date of redemption.  The Notes are secured by
substantially all of the Company's assets.

    The Indenture governing the Notes places certain business, financial and
operating restrictions on the Company and its subsidiaries including, among
other things, the incurrence of additional indebtedness, issuance of preferred
equity interests and entering into operating leases;  limitations on dividends,
repurchase of capital stock of the Company and redemption's of subordinated
debt;  limitations on transactions with affiliates;  limitations on mergers,
consolidations and sale of assets;  limitations on amending existing partnership
and facility construction agreements;  and the use of proceeds from the issuance
of Notes.  The Company will solicit consent of the Noteholders in connection
with the proposed merger with Hollywood Park and intends to solicit consent of
the Noteholders in connection with the termination of the Las Vegas lease (See
Note 6.)

    In October 1994, the Mississippi Gaming Commission adopted a regulation
which requires, as a condition of license or license renewal, for a gaming
establishment's plan to include various expenditures including parking
facilities and infrastructure facilities amounting to at least 25% of the casino
cost.  Although the Company believes it has satisfied this requirement at the
Mississippi property, there can be no assurance the Mississippi Gaming
Commission will not require further development on the casino site including
hotel rooms and additional parking facilities.  Additionally, there can be no
assurance that the Company will be successful in completing such a project or
that the Company would be able to obtain a waiver if the Company decides not to
build.

    A demand for arbitration has been filed by Eric Skrmetta, a limited
partner, with the American Arbitration Association, alleging that Boomtown
breached the Louisiana Partnership Agreement and its fiduciary duty to limited
partners resulting in a substantial tax liability to Mr. Skrmetta.  Boomtown
disputes this claim and is contesting it vigorously.

4.  COMMON STOCK OUTSTANDING AND NET LOSS PER SHARE

    Net income per share of Common Stock is computed based on the weighted 
average number of shares of Common Stock and dilutive Common Stock 
equivalents outstanding during the period.  Net loss per share is computed 
using the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding and 
common equivalent shares from stock options and warrants are excluded from 
the computation because their effect is antidilutive.  Fully diluted per 
share amounts are the same as primary per share amounts for the periods 
presented.  (Also see Part II, Item 6, Exhibit 11.1 of this document).

5.  SUMMARIZED CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)

    (1)  Blue Diamond Hotel & Casino, Inc. is a wholly-owned subsidiary that is
consolidated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

    (2)  Boomtown Hotel & Casino, Inc. is a wholly-owned subsidiary that is
consolidated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.  These
amounts do not include the operations of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries
which are general partners of the Company's non-wholly-owned subsidiaries.  The
operations of such wholly-owned subsidiaries are insignificant and have been
included in the column "Non-wholly Owned Subsidiaries".

    (3)  Non-wholly Owned Subsidiaries include Boomtown, Inc.'s subsidiaries in
Mississippi and Louisiana and 100% of the assets, liabilities and equity of the
limited partnerships formed to operate the gaming facilities in those states.

    (4)  Eliminations consist of Boomtown, Inc.'s (a) investment in the
guarantor entities, (b) advances to the guarantor and non-guarantor subsidiaries
and (c) equity earnings (loss) of consolidated subsidiaries and partnerships.
The advances are subordinated in right of payment to the guarantees of the
Notes.

6.  OTHER EVENTS

    AMENDMENT OF LEASE AGREEMENT - Upon commencement of operations at Boomtown
Biloxi, the Company entered into an agreement with Hospitality Franchise
Systems, Inc. ("HFS") whereby HFS advanced the Company $11 million in return for
ownership of the Biloxi barge and shell building.  Also under this agreement,
HFS was to receive 20% of the adjusted earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation, and amortization ("EBTIDA") as defined in the related contract.
HFS was also to provide marketing services to Boomtown Biloxi.  The assets under
this agreement, as well as the related contractual arrangements, were
subsequently transferred to National Gaming Corporation, Inc., which
subsequently changed its name to National Lodging Corp. ("NGC").  Boomtown
Biloxi leases the assets from NGC under a 25 year lease with a 25 year renewal
option.

    In November, 1995, the Company executed an agreement with NGC whereby $2.4
million was returned to NGC in return for a reduction of the EBITDA
distributions from 20% to 16%.  Additionally, for $100,000 the Company secured
an option to buy the barge from NGC as well as to buy out the EBITDA
participation at a cost approximating the original investment made by HFS less
the $2.4 million that was paid.  The option terminates on March 31, 1997 but is
renewable for an additional two years for $100,000 a year.

    PROPOSED MERGER WITH HOLLYWOOD PARK, INC. ("HOLLYWOOD PARK") - On April 23,
1996, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger
Agreement") with Hollywood Park relating to the strategic combination of
Hollywood Park and the Company.  Pursuant to the Merger Agreement and subject to
the terms and conditions set forth therein, the Company would become a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Hollywood Park (the "Merger").  Pursuant to the
Merger Agreement, at the effective date of the Merger (the "Effective Date"),
each issued and outstanding share of Boomtown Common Stock will be converted
into the right


                                          9



to receive 0.625 (the "Exchange Ratio"), of a share of Hollywood Park Common
Stock.  The Merger is intended to be structured as a tax-free reorganization.

6.  OTHER EVENTS (CONTINUED)

    As of April 23, 1996, the Company had approximately 11,602,432 shares of
Common Stock outstanding and Hollywood Park had approximately 21,093,957 shares
of Common Stock outstanding (in each case assuming the exercise of all
outstanding options, warrants, rights or conversion privileges relating to
Common Stock).  Upon the consummation of the Merger, it is expected that former
Boomtown stockholders will own approximately 25.6% of the outstanding shares of
Hollywood Park Common Stock (assuming the exercise of all outstanding options,
warrants, rights or conversion privileges relating to the Company's Common
Stock).

    At the Effective Date, Hollywood Park's Board of Directors will be expanded
from seven (7) to eleven (11) members and will be comprised of seven (7)
directors selected by Hollywood Park (the "Hollywood Park Directors") and four
(4) directors selected by the Company (the Boomtown Directors").  Hollywood Park
will nominate the initial Company Directors (or replacements elected by a
majority of the Boomtown Directors) for re-election at the first three annual
stockholder meetings following the Effective Date.  Upon the Effective Date and
for a period of three years thereafter the Executive Committee of Hollywood
Park's Board of Directors will consist of four (4) Hollywood Park Directors and
two (2) Boomtown Directors, including R.D. Hubbard, Chief Executive Officer of
Hollywood Park, Timothy J. Parrott, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive
Officer of Boomtown, Richard J. Goeglein, a current member of the Board of
Directors of Boomtown and three designees of Hollywood Park.  In addition,
Hollywood Park will establish a three (3) person Office of the Chairman
comprised of Hollywood Park's and Boomtown's Chief Executive Officers and
Hollywood Park's President of Sports and Entertainment.

    The closing of the Merger is subject to numerous conditions precedent,
including (i) the approval of the stockholders of the Company and Hollywood
Park, (ii) the approval of requisite governmental authorities, including the
necessary gaming authorities in the jurisdictions in which the parties conduct
business, and the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period
under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended
(completed on June 20, 1996), (iii) the availability of sufficient financing of
up to $163.5 million to fund up to $60 million of future gaming projects and to
fund the repurchase of Boomtown's outstanding 11-1/2% First Mortgage Notes (the
"Notes") if put to Boomtown by the holders of the Notes as a consequence of the
Merger and (iv) the consent to the Merger by the holders of a majority of the
outstanding principal amount of the Notes.  There can be no assurance that any
or all of these conditions precedent, will be satisfied or that the proposed
merger with Hollywood Park will be consummated.

    Certain additional matters relating to the signing of the Merger 
Agreement and a complete description of the Merger Agreement are more fully 
described in the Company's Form 8-K dated April 23, 1996, including the 
Agreement and Plan of Merger file as exhibit 2.1 thereto, and filed with the 
Securities and Exchange Commission on May 3, 1996.

    LOUISIANA DEVELOPMENTS -  In a recent development potentially affecting
Boomtown's Harvey, Louisiana riverboat gaming operations, the State of Louisiana
adopted a statute pursuant to which voter referendums on the continuation of
gaming will be held locally (on a parish-by-


                                          10




parish basis) where gaming operations are conducted.  The vote is scheduled for
November 5, 1996.  While Boomtown has no reason at this time to believe that the
voters of Jefferson Parish

6.  OTHER EVENTS (CONTINUED)

(where Boomtown's Louisiana riverboat operations are located) will vote against
riverboat gaming, in the event they were to do so, Boomtown would have to
discontinue its riverboat gaming operation in that parish upon the expiration of
its license in June 1999 and this occurrence would cause a material adverse
effect on the Company's results of operations.

    TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT WITH SES GAMING, INC. - In April 1996, Boomtown
and related entities (the "Boomtown Group") entered into a termination agreement
with SES Gaming, Inc. and related entities (the "SES Group") terminating that
certain Master Agreement by and between the Boomtown Group and the SES Group
dated February 1, 1994 relating to a proposed gaming project in Lawrenceburg,
Indiana (the "Lawrenceburg Project").  The parties were denied a license for the
Lawrenceburg Project in July 1994.  The Termination Agreement provided that,
among other things, (i) the Boomtown Group transferred to the SES Facilities all
of the Boomtown Group's rights, title and interest in and to the Lawrenceburg
Project, (ii) the SES Group waived any rights it might have to Boomtown's
potential project with Hilton Gaming Corporation in Switzerland County, Indiana,
(iii) the SES group agreed not to use the Boomtown name in any way and (iv) the
parties mutually released one another from all claims that might arise out of
the Master Agreement.

    TERMINATION OF LAS VEGAS PROPERTY LEASE - On August 12, 1996, Boomtown, 
Blue Diamond, Hollywood Park, Roski, IVAC and Majestic Realty entered into 
the Blue Diamond Swap Agreement (the "Swap Agreement") pursuant to which the 
parties agreed that, upon consummation of the Merger, and contingent upon the 
closing of the Merger, Boomtown and Blue Diamond (or any transferee thereof 
as set forth in the Swap Agreement) would exchange their entire interest in 
the Blue Diamond Resort (the "Resort") (including the IVAC Loans), and 
effectively transfer all interest in the Resort to Roski, in exchange for a 
$5.0 million unsecured promissory note (the "First Note") and an unsecured 
promissory note (the "Second Note") valued at approximately $3.5 million and 
assumption by Roski, IVAC or an affiliate of certain liabilities (the 
"Swap").  The First Note has an interest rate equal to the prime rate plus 
one and one half percent (1.5%) per annum and provides for annual principal 
payments of one million dollars ($1,000,000) plus accrued interest and 
maturing on the date that is five years after the Exchange Date (as such term 
is defined in the Swap Agreement).  The Second Note has an interest rate 
equal to the prime rate plus one-half percent (5%) per annum and provides for 
a payment of all principal plus accrued interest on the date that is three 
(3) years after the Exchange Date. Consummation of the Swap is subject to 
obtaining all necessary Governmental approvals, including gaming approval.

    In exchange for its interest in the Resort, Boomtown will receive notes
payable to Boomtown with an approximate value totaling $8.5 million, an
estimated cash payment of $2.1 million, release from lease obligations under the
resort lease, Roski's assumption of certain liabilities and note obligations
totaling approximately $3.8 million and the ongoing expenses of the Resort.
Additionally, Roski will assume all operating leases including any residual
balances due under such leases. The Swap Agreement requires approvals from
applicable gaming authorities and Boomtown intends to seek the consent of the
holders of a majority of the


                                          11



outstanding principal amount on the Notes (see Note 3).  The Swap would be
effected immediately following the Company's Merger with Hollywood Park which is
expected to be completed by the end of the 1996 calendar year or during the
first quarter of calendar 1997.

6.  OTHER EVENTS (CONTINUED)

    In accordance with the terms of the Swap Agreement, with certain exceptions
set forth in the Swap Agreement, the Company will continue to operate the
property until consummation of the Merger.  Boomtown and Blue Diamond will be
responsible for the liabilities of the Resort accruing prior to the Swap and
Roski will be responsible for the liabilities of the Resort accruing subsequent
to the Swap.  In addition, Roski will resign from Boomtown's Board of Directors,
effective as of the Exchange Date.  Subject to certain conditions set forth in
the Swap Agreement, the Swap may be effectuated through any structure agreed
upon by Boomtown and Hollywood Park.  If the Swap were not consummated for any
reason, Boomtown would continue to operate the property through the expiration
of the lease term in July 1999, and the IVAC Notes would be required to be
repaid to Boomtown at such time.

    On August 12, 1996, Hollywood Park and Roski further entered into a Stock
Purchase Agreement (the "Stock Purchase Agreement") pursuant to which Hollywood
Park will, concurrently with the Swap, purchase the stock in Boomtown held by
Roski ("the Roski Stock") for a purchase price of approximately $3.5 million
paid for by an unsecured promissory note having an interest rate equal to the
prime rate plus one percent (1%) per annum and providing for four equal annual
principal payments plus accrued interest and maturing on the date that is four
years after the Exchange Date.  The Stock Purchase Agreement may also be
terminated by Hollywood Park in the event that Boomtown and Hollywood Park, in
accordance with the provisions set forth in the Swap Agreement, elect to utilize
a structure to effect the Swap which would require Roski to retain the Roski
Stock.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         During the quarter and nine month period ended June 30, 1996 revenues
were $60.8 million and $173.4 million respectively, compared to $59.9 million
and $169.7 million in the prior year commensurate period.  The improvement in
revenues resulted from higher gaming revenues at the Company's Reno, Nevada and
Biloxi, Mississippi casinos, offset by lower gaming revenues at its Las Vegas,
Nevada and New Orleans, Louisiana gaming properties.  Reno revenues grew 4% and
8.1% over the prior year three and nine month periods primarily as a result of
higher traffic volume on Interstate 80, where the casino receives the majority
of its customer volume.  Boomtown Biloxi's revenues have improved due to
expansion of the gaming market in the Gulf Coast region combined with higher
marketing and promotional efforts at the Boomtown property.  Biloxi revenues
were up 8.2% and 9.2% for the three and nine month periods over the prior year.
Gaming revenues at the Company's Las Vegas property continued to be less than
expected and lower than the prior year resulting from increased competition with
other casino operators for the local customer market in the Las Vegas area.  In
New Orleans revenues have been negatively affected by additional cruising of its
riverboat casino as mandated by law.

         Non-gaming revenues for the three and nine months ended June 30, 1996
were $12.9 million and $34.0 million respectively, compared to $11.3 million and
$29.9 million recorded during the prior year nine month period.  Non-gaming
revenues are generated from the Company's family entertainment centers, food and
beverage sales, cabaret show, hotel room sales, recreational vehicle park and
other entertainment amenities.  Increases in non-gaming revenues were recorded
at all four of the Boomtown casinos, with the majority of the consolidated
improvement due from higher fuel sales at the Reno truckstop as well as the
expansion of the cabaret show at the New Orleans casino property.

         The consolidated gaming margin was 62% for the third quarter, compared
to 63.3% in the prior year same quarter.  Additionally, gaming margin decreased
$1.0 million to 60.8% compared to 61.3% during the prior year nine month period.
The decline is primarily a result of a change in the calculation of gaming taxes
at Boomtown New Orleans resulting in the taxes being reclassified and charged as
a gaming expense in the current year period.   During the prior year, the taxes
were calculated based on a flat charge per admission and recorded as general
administrative expenses.  Additionally, the Company's consolidated gaming margin
was negatively effected by gaming leases entered into in April 1995 resulting in
higher gaming equipment lease expense during the period.  The decline in the
consolidated gaming margin was offset by improvements from Boomtown Biloxi
resulting from the discontinuance of the property's Fun Flight program in
October 1995.

         Marketing expenses were $5.8 million and $16.6 million for the three
and nine months ended June 30, 1996, respectively, 20% and 14% higher than $4.8
million and $14.5 million recorded during the prior year.  Marketing expenses
consist of costs associated with printed


                                          13




advertising, outdoor signs, media advertising, promotional events, the Company's
bus tour and Fun Flight programs and other administrative expenses.  The
increase in marketing expenses during fiscal 1996 resulted from additional
advertising in Biloxi and Las Vegas in order to promote the Boomtown brand and
compete with the local customer market in those areas.  Higher promotional
events and player's club redemption costs at all of the Boomtown casinos also
contributed to the increase.
ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

         General and administrative ("G&A") expenses were $17.4 million for the
three months ended June 30, 1996, an 8% decline from the $19.0 million recorded
during the same prior year period.  Additionally, G&A expenses were $52.8
million for the nine months ending June 30, 1996, 2.8% lower than $54.2 million
in the prior nine month period.  G&A expenses were less at the Company's Las
Vegas and New Orleans properties offset by higher expenses in Biloxi.  The
reduction at Boomtown New Orleans primarily resulted from a reclassification of
gaming taxes from G&A to gaming operating expenses during the current year
period.  Lower expenses at Boomtown Las Vegas resulted from a reduction of
overhead costs in most casino departments due to cost control efforts.  The
increase in Boomtown Biloxi's G&A expenses was attributable to higher property
rent and building and grounds maintenance associated with the aging of the
building and barge.  The Company continues to concentrate on aggressive cost
reduction programs for all of its properties.

         During the nine months ended June 30, 1996 the Company incurred
charges of $683,000 related to its pending merger with Hollywood Park, as well
as $237,000 associated with its license application in the state of Indiana as
reflected in "Discontinued Projects/Future Development".

         Depreciation and amortization expenses rose 13% and 6.5% to $2.8
million and $8.1 million during the three and nine month period ended June 30,
1996, respectively resulting from property and equipment purchases at the
Boomtown properties.  Additionally, the increase is partially attributable to
restructuring certain operating leases to capital leases at the Company's Biloxi
and New Orleans properties, capitalizing the equipment and depreciating the
costs over the remaining estimated useful lives.

         During the quarter ended June 30, 1996, the Company took a non-cash
charge of $36.6 million related to an agreement between the Company, the owner
and lessor ("Roski") of the Boomtown Las Vegas property ("Resort") and Hollywood
Park ("Blue Diamond Swap Agreement") which would effectively provide for an
early termination of the existing property lease between Boomtown and IVAC (a
California general partnership owned by Roski).  The agreement promises that
upon consummation of the Company's proposed merger with Hollywood Park Boomtown
would transfer its entire interest in the Resort to Roski in exchange of certain
assets and assumption by Roski, IVAC or an affiliate of certain liabilities.
The charge included the write-off of the Company's investment in lease of $12.7
million, a write-down of the related party notes receivable to $8.5 million, the
write-off of the remaining net assets less the liabilities assumed by Roski of
$5.0 million (approximate value at June 30, 1996).  The after-tax loss amounted
to $35.7 million, or $3.86 per share. Consummation of the Swap is subject to
obtaining all necessary Governmental approvals, including gaming approval.  In
addition the Company intends to solicit the consent of the holders of a majority
amount of the principal amount of the Notes to effect the Swap.


                                          14





         The recorded provision and benefit for income taxes for the three 
and nine months ended June 30, 1996, respectively does not necessarily 
reflect the anticipated benefit in both periods from the write-off associated 
with the Swap Agreement. The write-off of the $12.7 million investment in 
lease, is not tax deductible for income tax purposes, however the remaining 
income tax benefit arising from the Swap Agreement has been offset by a 
valuation allowance because of the uncertainty regarding future realization 
of the related deferred tax asset.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

         Interest expense for the three and nine months ended June 30, 1996 was
$3.5 million and $10.4 million compared to $3.5 million and $9.8 million
recorded during the prior year period, respectively.  Additionally, the Company
recorded interest income of $2.3 million, 3% higher than during the prior year.
Interest income is primarily generated from the IVAC notes receivable, which
will be canceled in connection with the Las Vegas lease termination as described
above. During the three months ended June 30, 1996 the Company also recorded
other income of $827,000 consisting of sales tax recoveries from double taxation
on certain equipment operating leases.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         The Company's principal source of liquidity at June 30, 1996 was cash
and cash equivalents of approximately $21.6 million, an increase of
approximately $800,000 from September 30, 1995.  For the first nine months of
fiscal 1996, the Company generated cash from operating activities of $10.2
million as compared to $4.4 million a year ago.  This higher operating cash flow
resulted primarily from the pay down of accounts payable during the prior year
period.  The net cash provided from operating activities during the first nine
months of the current fiscal year were derived from a net loss of $31.1 million,
primarily related to the write off of Blue Diamond of $31.6 million, net
increases in accounts payable, accrued liabilities and accrued compensation of
$2.0 million, a decrease in prepaid expenses of $1.3 million, depreciation and
amortization expense of $8.1 million and other uses of $1.7 million.

         The Company used net cash of $6.8 million, in investing activities
during the first nine months of fiscal 1996, primarily related to the purchases
of property and equipment, offset by proceeds of $406,000 from the sale of
equipment.

         Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended June
30, 1996 were $2.6 million, primarily related to the payment to $2.5 million to
the lessor of the Boomtown Biloxi barge.  Under the agreement, the Company
returned the $2.4 million to NGC in return for a reduction of the distributions
from 20% to 16% of operating cash flow, as defined.  Additionally, for $100,000,
the Company secured an option to buy the barge back from NCG as well as to buy
out the EBITDA participation at a cost approximating the original investment
made by HFS less the $2.4 million that was paid back.  The option terminates on
March 31, 1997 but is renewable for an additional two years for $100,000 a year.

         At June 30, 1996, the Company's debt was comprised principally of the
$103.5 million principal amount of 11.5% First Mortgage Notes due 2003.
Interest on the notes is payable semiannually in arrears each May 1 and November
1.  The Company has five notes payable in


                                          15




the aggregate amount of $5.6 million.  Three of the notes totaling $1.6 million
are secured by equipment, furniture and fixtures, bears interest at 11.5% and
mature in September 1997.  The fourth note, with a balance of $3.5 million at
June 30, 1996, is secured by the gaming vessel in Harvey, Louisiana, bears
interest at 13% and matures in January 1999.  The fifth note, with a balance of
$530,000 at June 30, 1996, is secured by gaming equipment, bears interest at
12.25% and matures in December 1997.  The Company also has six capital lease
obligations for equipment with a balance of $2.9 million at June 30, 1996.
During March 1996, the Company converted an
ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

operating lease on certain furniture, fixtures and equipment to a note
obligation whereby the residual balance on the operating lease was funded and
the remaining outstanding balance was converted to a capital lease.  As of June
30, 1996 the outstanding balance on the lease was $756,000 and matures in August
1998.

         The Company believes that its current available cash and cash
equivalents and anticipated cash flow from operations will be sufficient to fund
the Company's working capital and normal recurring capital expenditures through
the end of calendar 1996.  The Company does not believe such sources of
liquidity will be sufficient to fund any of its proposed expansion projects at
its current gaming facilities or in any new gaming jurisdiction.  The Company
believes that such expansion of its existing facilities is important for
continued growth.  If any of the Company's current proposed expansion projects
were to proceed, the Company anticipates that such financing subject to certain
restrictions set forth in the First Mortgage Notes, would come from one or more
of a number of sources, including cash flow from operations, bank financing,
vendor financing or debt, joint ventures, equity financing or other long-term
debt.  Alternatively, in the event the Hollywood Park merger were to be
consummated, the Company believes that additional sources of financing will
become available.  However, there can be no assurance that such financing will
be available, or available on terms acceptable to the Company or that any
proposed expansion projects by the Company will ever be completed.  Further,
given the rapidly changing national competitive and legal environments related
to gaming, the Company's future operating results are highly conditional and
could fluctuate significantly.  Should cash flow from the Company's operations
in all locations be below expectations, the Company may have difficulty in
satisfying capital requirements.

         The statements set forth above regarding the Company's estimates of
its liquidity and capital expenditure requirements, the sufficiency of its
resources and , any expectation that the Swap would be consummated are
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended, and are subject to the safe harbors created thereby.  Future
operating results of the Company may be adversely affected as a result of a
number of factors, including without limitation, seasonality (historically, the
Company's operating results have been strongest in the summer months, and
weakest in the winter months), weather conditions (severe winter storms have in
the past had a significant adverse effect on the Company's operating results),
the general level of demand for casino gaming and entertainment facilities,
competition in the gaming industry and uncertainties in general economic,
regulatory and political conditions affecting the gaming industry, difficulties
in integrating the businesses of the Company and


                                          16



Hollywood Park following the proposed merger and lack of financing following the
proposed merger with Hollywood Park and failure to satisfy any conditions to the
Swap.  Any of the above factors, among others, could cause the Company's
operating results to be weaker than expected, and could cause the Company's cash
requirements to differ materially from the Company's current estimates.

    FACTOR AFFECTING FUTURE OPERATING RESULTS - In a recent development
potentially affecting Boomtown's Harvey, Louisiana riverboat gaming operations,
the State of Louisiana adopted a statute pursuant to which voter referendums on
the continuation of gaming will be held locally (on
ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

a parish-by-parish basis) where gaming operations are conducted.  While Boomtown
has no reason at this time to believe that the voters of Jefferson Parish (where
Boomtown's Louisiana riverboat operations are located) will vote against
riverboat gaming, in the event they were to do so, Boomtown would have to
discontinue its riverboat gaming operation in that parish upon the expiration of
its license in June 1999 and this occurrence would cause a material adverse
effect on the Company's results of operations.

                             PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

    Boomtown is named defendant in a class action suit in the United States
    District Court in New Jersey in which the plaintiffs have alleged that
    numerous companies operating casinos in the United States have conspired to
    exclude card counters from their establishments. (HYLAND V. GRIFFIN
    INVESTIGATIONS, ET.AL.)  A class has not yet been certified in the action.
    Motions to dismiss are in the process of being filed by the Company and
    other defendants.

    A demand for arbitration has been filed by Eric Skrmetta with the American
    Arbitration Association, alleging that Boomtown breached Louisiana
    Partnership Agreement and its fiduciary duty to limited partners resulting
    in a substantial tax liability to Mr. Skrmetta.  Boomtown disputes this
    claim and is contesting it vigorously.
