Kansas Tribe to Become First in State to Offer Sports Betting

The Prairie Band Casino and Resort is set to become the first tribal casino in Kansas to offer sports betting, aiming to launch the new sportsbook by the end of this year.

The Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation voted to approve a Tribal-State Gaming Compact that lays the groundwork for an on-site sportsbook at its casino on tribal land in Mayetta, Kansas, about 25 miles north of Topeka.

As a result of our extensive research, we’ve found a place for Prairie Band Sportsbook in the sports betting market,” General Manager Bill Marsh said in a press release.

Prairie Band Casino and Resort opened in 1998 as the first full-service casino in Kansas, and it features 1,200 slot machines, 25 table games, a 400-seat bingo hall, and dining and other amenities. It is one of four tribal casinos in Kansas, along with facilities operated by the Iowa Tribe, Kickapoo Tribe and Sac & Fox Nation.
