It doesn’t appear North Carolinians will head to a betting window any time soon.
The CEO of North Carolina’s NHL team recently said the Hurricanes, or any other professional team partnered with mobile sports betting operators, have no plans for a retail license.
“I don’t know that we or anyone else in North Carolina, maybe with the exception of horse racing, if it becomes legalized, will do anything like that because it doesn’t make sense to take up the space with a window,” Hurricanes’ CEO Brian Fork said during a recent interview on the “Ovies & Giglio” podcast.
Covers reached out to the North Carolina State Lottery Commission for an update on retail sports betting.
