Types of Retail Sports Betting Locations

While being a non-sport gambling state all this while, Wisconsin has been a decent pro-gambling state. Although its laws state that gambling is illegal (even down to the simplest form of social gambling), Indian tribes are exempted from the wagering ban. So, all the casinos in the state are owned by Indian tribes.

At these Native American casinos, you can play blackjack, poker, dice games, lottery games, roulette, and slot machines. You can also bet on horse racing events. Green Bay is the most popular city for gambling in Wisconsin, with top brands like Oneida Casino. Now, you can also bet on sports.

Casino Resorts

Wisconsin has 10 casino resorts, and they are all owned by Indian tribes. Today, some of them also offer sports betting in addition to great amenities like luxury hotels, restaurants and bars, spa and fitness centers, and more. The age requirement for casinos in this state is 21 years. For horse racing betting and lottery, it’s 18.

Off-Track Betting

There aren’t any racetracks in the Badger State. However, you can engage in off-track betting on horse racing events from across the country. Oneida Casino Main-Airport in Green Bay is an excellent location to do this. Remember that 18 is the minimum age to place off-track bets.

Cruise Ships and Riverboats

There aren’t any cruise ships operating in Wisconsin because this is not a coastal state. Also, you won’t be able to play casino games or find any Wisconsin sportsbook on a riverboat as there are none in the Badger State.

List of In-Person Sportsbooks in Wisconsin

Since PASPA was repealed, the legislators in Wisconsin never passed a bill to have physical sports betting locations. But, after seeing how sports wagering has contributed significantly to other states’ economies, they announced that there would be a legal land-based sportsbook by the beginning of the NFL season in 2021.

This announcement was made by Governor Tony Evers on July 1, 2021, after signing a new Tribal Gaming Compact with the Oneida Nation in Green Bay, WI. The first betting operator in the state was Oneida Casino in Green Bay. Now, there are several legal retail sportsbooks operated by Native American tribes in the state.
