Hollywood Casino Toledo is wasting no time capitalizing on the legalization of sports betting in Ohio.

A spokeswoman for the casino confirmed to WTOL 11 Thursday the facility is planning to make sports betting available via a physical sportsbook inside the casino and through the Barstool Sportsbook app starting Jan. 1, 2023. On Wednesday, the state announced sports betting will begin New Year’s Day — just over a year after Gov. Mike DeWine signed House Bill 29 making sports betting legal.

Hollywood Casino is also planning to open a Barstool restaurant in early 2023.

The spokeswoman said it “will be the premier place to watch and bet sports in all of northwest Ohio.”
