The Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation has been given the green light to roll out sports betting — but the tribe’s exact plans remain unclear, with legal uncertainty potentially limiting their options for the time being.
The state legalized sports betting last year, with gamblers allowed to start wagering on games in September, shortly before the beginning of the National Football League season.
The state’s four federally recognized tribes were authorized to negotiate with Gov. Laura Kelly’s administration to offer sports betting and a bill earlier this year paved the way for the state to work out a deal to amend the Prairie Band’s gaming compact with the state.
