Caesars Sportsbook at Oddfellahs in Portland, Maine has become the first venue in the state to accept in-person sports wagering.
Portland mayor Mark Dion joined representatives from Caesars Sportsbook, the Portland City Council and Maine Gambling Control Unit for a ceremonial first bet, as well as representatives from First Tracks which partnered with Caesars Sportsbook.
“We’d like to thank Governor Janet Mills, the Maine Gambling Control Unit, the Portland City Council and the entire state legislature for making today possible,” said Eric Hession, president of Caesars Digital.
“It’s great to see the momentum following our launch of mobile sports wagering in the state through our historic partnership with three of the Wabanaki Nations. With the first in-person sportsbook now operational, we look forward to collaborating with First Tracks on additional in-person opportunities in Maine.”
Oddfellahs offers sports fans 21 and older full food and beverage service combined with an elevated sports viewing and wagering experience. Full-service sports wagering is available through self-service betting kiosks and a ticket window on-site in addition to convenient cash deposits and withdrawals for Caesars Sportsbook mobile accounts.
