After opening two sportsbook venues (Turning Point Casino and Point Place in Bridgeport) in New York state on August 1st, the Oneida Indian Nation has launched its third – and most ambitious – project to date. The tribe launched the biggest sportsbook in New York with Caesars Sports at Yellow Brick Road Casino, just in time for the start of the NFL season.
Attending the grand opening at The Lounge was state senator Bob Antonacci who was among the first to place a bet, as well as the president of the Central-Northern New York Trades Council, Greg Lancette and the chairman of Madison County, John Becker.
Yellow Brick Road Casino, located east of Syracuse, boasts a large, 9,000 square foot Caesars-branded venue. The sportsbook is powered by the OpenSports product suite by Scientific Games. It also comes with several other attractive features, including seven ‘fan caves’ – private venues where fans of the same team can gather on game-days, as well as a 32-foot LED screen and 35 other TV screens. Visitor will also benefit from stadium recliners.
Yellow Brick Road Casino tweeted: “Touchdown! Our opening event for The Lounge with Caesars Sport was a huge success! Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate this exciting addition to Yellow Brick Road Casino. We are thrilled to announce that we are officially open!”
