Sports betting is kicking off at Prairie Band Casino and Resort. The popular gaming spot in Mayetta is the first tribal casino to launch its sportsbook, after months of negotiating its gaming compact with the state.
“One of the things we asked for is to allow tribes to be on the same playing field as every other casino in the state of Kansas,” said Joseph “Zeke” Rupnick, Chairman of Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation. “I hope that everybody will enjoy this amenity and have a good time here!”
The chairman spoke with Nexstar’s Kansas Capitol Bureau after inaugurating the sportsbook by placing the first bet.
