Wisconsin will be celebrating its third anniversary of regulated sports betting on Saturday, November 30th. The state currently offers retail sports betting at a few locations, with the Oneida and Potawatomi casinos leading the way. While there are no specific revenue statistics for the sportsbooks, Wisconsin Native American tribes have brought in over $1 billion in annual revenue from their casinos.
Michigan’s success in sports betting has highlighted the potential revenue that Wisconsin could be missing out on, with Michigan residents wagering $560.4 million in October alone. Despite this, regulated online sports betting is not yet available in Wisconsin, but residents can legally bet online through platforms like Bovada.
For the anniversary celebration, locals can bet on the Green Bay Packers in their Thanksgiving matchup against the Miami Dolphins. The Packers are the favorites to win by 3.0 points, and historical Thanksgiving betting trends suggest that they have a good chance of covering the spread.
While regulated online sports betting may be on the horizon for Wisconsin, for now, residents can enjoy betting on sports at the state’s retail locations or through online platforms like Bovada. Expect celebrations at the Oneida Casino for their third year of regulated sports betting in Wisconsin on Saturday.
