The first full year of casino gambling in Nebraska ended with a bang. The state’s four racetrack casinos brought in nearly $8.9 million in revenue in December, which was the second straight record monthly amount. That capped off a year that saw just over $89 million [in gross gaming revenue from] slot machines, table games and sports betting.
The bulk of that money, $51.5 million, was spent at Lincoln’s WarHorse Casino. That consisted of $50.2 million on slots and $1.3 million on sports betting.
Pete Graziano, vice president of marketing at WarHorse, said casino officials are pleased with the full-year revenue numbers…
Graziano said that when the casino opened in September 2022, WarHorse knew there was a lot of demand for casino gambling in Nebraska, “but we weren’t sure what to expect.”
