Dakota Nation Sportsbook prepares to open North Dakota’s ‘best venue’ for sports fans and bettors – INFORUM

HANKINSON, N.D. The Dakota Nation Sportsbook is set to open soon inside the Dakota Magic Casino in Hankinson.

The casino began accepting sports bets through digital kiosks in December, but sportsbook manager Jeff Hunter told InForum he hopes to have the accompanying bar and seating area up and running in time for the Super Bowl on Sunday, Feb. 13.

The focal point of the sportsbook is a 35-by-12-foot video board, which Hunter said can show up to 13 different sporting events. Additionally, the sportsbook area features 17 more wall-mounted televisions. Prior to the books opening Wednesday, Feb. 9, the video wall played a replay of a mens college basketball game, while other screens showed Olympic events and sports talk programs.

The sleek and modern room seats 99 people, Hunter said. That includes seating at lounge chairs, stadium seats and barstools as well as high- and low-top tables. Additionally, the sportsbook offers a full-service bar and food service.

With the exception of horse races, bettors can wager on any professional sporting event, including the Olympics. Also available are college sporting events, including for both the North Dakota State Bison and North Dakota Fighting Hawks. Pretty much anything you can bet in a Las Vegas sports book, you can bet here, Hunter noted.
