Nebraska open first retail sportsbook at WarHorse Casino
Nebraskans will have the opportunity to legally bet on sports for the first-time starting June 22 at WarHorse Casino Lincoln.
Customers will be able to place sports wagers through any of 10 kiosks in the casino or the sports book window. WarHorse has partnered with Kambi, a leading independent provider of sports betting technology and services.
“Nebraskans have been asking for the opportunity to wager on sports since the ballot initiatives were passed in 2020,” said Lance Morgan, CEO of Ho-Chunk, Inc., parent company of WarHorse Gaming, LLC. “We’re thrilled to be the first casino in the state to offer sports betting.”
The state’s regulations require sports wagers to be placed onsite, but bettors will be able to view odds, build and save wagers through the WarHorse app to rapidly place the wager at the onsite kiosks or sportsbook window. Currently, state regulations do not allow for online wagering or bets on in-state college home games.
“Bettors will be able to place wagers on a wide variety of sports and events, much more than just the major sports,” said Morgan.
WarHorse Casino Lincoln is Nebraska’s first and largest casino, offering more than 400 slots, simulcast horse wagering from the top tracks in the nation, and soon Nebraska’s first and only sportsbook. For more information visit www.warhorsecasino.com or download the WarHorse app.
