Sports fans in Ohio now have a new place to place their bets and celebrate their victories with the addition of Barstool Sportsbook at Hollywood Gaming at Dayton Raceway. The new sportsbook, restaurant and bar seats 130 guests and features several large-screen televisions and a full-service bar, plus VIP space.

Above that bar is a jumbotron, a 34-foot-wide viewing screen. On Friday, a ribbon cutting and soft launch were held, and the facilities officially opened during the weekend, just in time to place wagers for college basketball during March Madness.

"It was always supposed to be added on," said Jennifer Woffindale, Hollywood Gaming Director of Marketing, as reported by WDTN. "Sportsbook went live January 1, and then because of construction, we were just a little bit delayed. So, we got to open before March Madness."

According to Woffindale, since Ohio has allowed sports betting, Hollywood Gaming has seen great feedback and an abundance of new customers. "We’ve got new members showing up every day, signing up for a card, and business has been good," she said.

"It’s attracting a new guest to our establishment, and then on top of it; we get to add to the experience by now giving them some food and beverage. With the watch and wager," the executive noted.

The Sportsbook Manager at Hollywood Gaming, Dave Schleter, said he wants to see people have fun with the new additions to their gaming options: "We have great casino score. We have the VLT and the slot machines. We now have we have horse racing as well, which has been really good for us."

"Now we have a sportsbook for sports betting. This is a first-class dining facility, and so it just melds very well, and it just really brings everything together," he said, as reported by the above-mentioned media.
