The Ohio Lottery released a list of businesses that could be approved for sports betting machines starting next year. The list includes dozens of businesses in the Miami Valley.
Geez Grill & Pub Manager Mario Giallombardo said as soon as they heard sports betting will be legal in Ohio, they immediately knew they wanted to be part of it. Now they’re one step closer to getting a kiosk in their restaurant.
“Our customers are really going to be happy about it,” Giallombardo said.
Giallombardo said he believes having sports betting will keep people in local restaurants longer and bring in more revenue for those businesses.
