Item 1. Security and Issuer
This Amendment No. 1 on Schedule 13D/A (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements that the Statement on Schedule 13D (the “Statement”) originally filed by the reporting person with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 7, 2006, relating to shares of the common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of Boyd Gaming Corporation, a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), whose principal executive offices are located at 2950 Industrial Road, Las Vegas, NV 89109.
This Amendment is being filed by the reporting person solely with respect to a change in the percent of beneficial ownership of the class of securities resulting solely from a change in the aggregate number of such securities outstanding.

| 2. | The William S. Boyd Grantor Retained Annuity Trust #3, dated October 28, 1997; |

Ms. Johnson will review from time to time various factors relevant to her beneficial ownership of the Company’s securities, including trading prices for the Company’s common stock and conditions in capital markets generally, developments in the Company’s business and financial condition, results of operations and prospects, and other factors and, based thereon may, from time to time, dispose of some or all of the Company’s common stock that she beneficially holds, or acquire additional securities of the Company, in privately negotiated transactions, market sales or purchases, or otherwise. Ms. Johnson has in the past acquired, and may in the future acquire, stock options or other rights to purchase securities of the Company in the ordinary course of business in connection with her service as an officer and director of the Company.
Other than as set forth above and in her capacity as an officer and director of the Company, Ms. Johnson has no present plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the actions described in Items 4(a) through (j) of Schedule 13D.
