There’s a battle brewing over who will get to operate the voter-approved casino at Lincoln’s horse racing track.
Big Red Keno says it has a signed operating agreement that shows it has the rights to operate any expanded gaming there.
In a lawsuit filed in Lancaster County District Court last week, Big Red Keno cites a contract dating back to 2013, with Omaha Exposition Racing Inc. and the Lincoln Race Course.
Part of the contract said: “If additional gambling activities are legalized in the future and you wish to offer those activities at the premises, we agree to use our best efforts to make those activities available to you on mutually agreed terms.”
