While the vast preponderance of betting on the Super Bowl and the rest of the sports calendar is taking place on the 16 mobile sportsbook apps available in Ohio, in-person wagering offers another dimension that casino and racino operators deem worth a major investment. PENN Entertainment is opening new Barstool Sportsbooks at its Hollywood Gaming Mahoning Valley racino Friday and at Hollywood Casino Columbus Saturday. One gaming operator in particular is making use of Super Bowl week to show off the special opportunity the retail sportsbooks present for mass, party-flavored viewing of major events. On top of that, hundreds of bars and other locations with one or two lottery-approved sports betting kiosks will have patrons with action on Sunday night’s game. The state’s 14 retail Type B sportsbooks at casinos, racinos, and sporting venues will undoubtedly be hosting heavy crowds to watch and wager on a game in which the Philadelphia Eagles are slight favorites over the Kansas City Chiefs. Ohioans have been watching Super Bowls along with the rest of America since 1967 and finding various ways to bet on them in that span, but Sunday’s game marks the first one marrying the viewing with legal betting.
