After 10 years on the sidelines, Canterbury Park is ready to make some noise on Minnesota sports betting efforts.
The horse racetrack and cardroom is renewing lobbying efforts after concluding a 10-year arrangement with the Skakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community.
Canterbury Park CEO Randy Sampson spoke with PlayUSA about entering the fray on Minnesota sports betting discussions in 2023.
“Our main message right now is that the horse racing industry should be part of this debate. We don’t have a specific bill or exact idea of what racetracks’ involvement in sports betting should be. In most states where they have racetracks and sports betting, racetracks are involved in one way or another.”
