This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 (the "Amendment") amends the
Registration Statement on Form S-4 (Registration No. 333-44216)(as amended,
the "Registration Statement") by which Mandalay Resort Group, a Nevada
corporation (the "Registrant"), registered $500,000,000 principal amount of
the Registrant's 10 1/4% Series B Senior Subordinated Notes due 2007 (the
"Registered Notes") to be offered in exchange for an equivalent principal
amount of the Registrant's 10 1/4% Series A Senior Subordinated Notes due

Statement effective on September 5, 2000, and $499,000,000 principal amount
