Maryland Governor Larry Hogan, Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott, Ravens greats Torrey Smith and Adalius Thomas, and former Dunbar High School and NBA star Muggsy Bogues were some of the participants at the official acceptance of in-person wagers at the new venue.
The new Caesars Sportsbook at Horseshoe Baltimore is an important element in the transformation of the casino’s first level into an entertainment environment. The renovation plan includes an area tailored for table games and The Brew Brothers Tap House, a dining concept that’s not available anywhere else in Maryland.
In addition to being able to place wagers at the new location’s main ticket counter on the casino’s first level, there are 14 self-service betting kiosks located throughout the casino.
Horseshoe Baltimore SVP and General Manager Randy Conroy said: “We are pleased to introduce the industry’s leading sports wagering brand to Baltimore and Maryland.
“Caesars Sportsbook offers the best sports wagering experience in markets across America, and now Marylanders will have the opportunity to enjoy all of its many benefits exclusively at Horseshoe Baltimore.
“As with any type of wager made at Horseshoe Baltimore, bets placed at Caesars Sportsbook count toward unique perks in our Caesars Rewards player loyalty program.”
Mayor Scott argued the importance of the new sportsbook, being “one of several major investments made in South Baltimore.”
He added that the new location will complement the emerging redevelopment of Warner Street into the city’s next entertainment destination.
