Premier mobile sports wagering experience now live for sports fans 21 and older
AUGUSTA, Maine--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Sports wagering is live in Maine, and Caesars Entertainment, Inc. (NASDAQ: CZR) (“Caesars”) today announced that its flagship sports wagering platform, Caesars Sportsbook, is accepting sports wagers on mobile and desktop in the Pine Tree State. Caesars Sportsbook launches through Caesars’ historic partnership with three of the Wabanaki Nations: the Houlton Band of Maliseet Indians, the Mi’kmaq Nation and the Penobscot Nation, furthering Caesars Entertainment’s longtime commitment to supporting Indian gaming.
“Maine sports fans deserve an elevated sports wagering experience that matches the pedigree of sports fandom in New England,” said Eric Hession, President of Caesars Digital. “The launch of Caesars Sportsbook delivers on that pedigree with a platform built for the modern sports fan 21 and older with exciting ways to wager responsibly on the sports they love. We’d like to thank Gov. Janet Mills and the Maine Legislature for making this launch possible, as well as the Maine Gambling Control Unit for all they have done throughout this process.”
“Penobscot Nation is excited to partner with Caesars Sportsbook, the Mi’kmaq Nation and the Houlton Band of Maliseet Indians to bring online sports betting to Maine,” said Chief Kirk Francis of the Penobscot Nation. “We chose to partner with Caesars over other companies because of Caesars’ decades-long history of working with Tribal Nations throughout the country, their commitment to Tribal sovereignty and their understanding of our State’s deep history with horse racing. When consumers use the Caesars Sportsbook app they can do so knowing that they are supporting the vast majority of the Wabanaki Nations and a company that operates with respect and a commitment to Tribal Nations and a deep understanding of Mainers.”
“The Mi'kmaq Nation is proud to launch mobile sports wagering in Maine jointly with the Penobscot Nation, the Houlton Band of Maliseet Indians and Caesars Sportsbook,” said Chief Edward J. Peter-Paul of the Mi’kmaq Nation. “We appreciate the work of the Maine State Legislature, the Governor, and the Maine Gambling Control Unit to bring sports betting to the State in a way that promotes gaming integrity and offers a vitally needed economic opportunity to each of the Wabanaki Nations. The Mi'kmaq Nation is committed to working with its Tribal Nation partners, Caesars Sportsbook and State officials to offer a robust and well-regulated sports betting industry in Maine for the benefit of the Wabanaki Nations, the State, and the public.”
“The Houlton Band of Maliseet Indians is thrilled to offer the first legal online sports wagering in Maine in partnership with the Penobscot Nation, the Mi’kmaq Nation, and Caesars Sportsbook,” said Chief Clarissa Sabattis of the Houlton Band of Maliseet Indians. “Our three Wabanaki Nations searched long and hard for a partner who shares Maine values. We found that partner in Caesars Sportsbook. Caesars is committed to helping make all our tribal and non-tribal communities stronger and safer. The revenues from sports wagering will be used by our tribal governments and the State to support law enforcement, health care, housing, and education throughout Maine. Working together, we are stronger.”

About the 3-Wabanaki Nation Coalition
The Penobscot Nation is a sovereign Indian Nation, whose headquarters are located on Indian Island, Maine. The Tribe has been located here since time immemorial and continues to practice its ancient traditions, including hunting and fishing. Penobscot owns over 150,000 acres of land plus over 220 islands in the Penobscot River. The Tribe operates over 110 programs including law enforcement, health care, natural resource and wildlife management, housing, social services, youth programs and its own school system. The Penobscot Nation is very active in sustainable management of its natural resources, lands and waters, including operating a sustained yield foresting program. Additionally, the Tribe participated in the Penobscot River restoration project removing several dams and opening up over 1,200 miles of habitat for over a dozen sea run fish species.
The Houlton Band of Maliseet Indians is a federally recognized Indian tribe located in Aroostook County, Maine. We are a riverine people who have used our ancestral territory since time immemorial for fishing, hunting, and gathering fiddleheads for food, ash for basket weaving, and birch for canoes. We call our Band “Metahksoniqewiyik” or People of the Meduxnekeag River, a tributary of the St. John or “Wolastoq” that flows through the Town of Houlton. Together, the Maliseet people of the United States and Canada are the “Wolastoqewiyik” or People of the Beautiful, Flowing River. The Maliseets and Mi’kmaqs were signatory to the first treaty entered by the United States—the Treaty of Watertown on July 19, 1776, just 15 days after the Declaration of Independence—sending 600 of our warriors to fight alongside General Washington against Great Britain. Today, our tribal government provides essential services to our community including housing, mental health and substance abuse treatment, and education. We are a statewide leader in Atlantic salmon restoration and work closely with the Towns of Houlton and Littleton and other local governments on road, bridge, water, and other critical infrastructure projects that support jobs for the people of Aroostook County. The Houlton Band of Maliseet Indians invites you to visit our beautiful homeland at Wilderness Pines Campground in Monticello. To learn more about our tribal government and businesses, please visit https://maliseets.net/ and https://www.wildernesspinescampground.com/.
The Mi’kmaq Nation is a federally recognized tribe with 1,633 members in Aroostook County, Maine. The central village and governmental seat is known as the "Bon Aire Village" and is located in the town of Presque Isle. The southern "Littleton Village," is located approximately 45 miles south of Bon Aire, and the northern "Connor Village," is located 25 miles north of Bon Aire. After receiving federal recognition in 1991, the Tribe’s name was officially changed from the Aroostook Band of Micmacs to Mi’kmaq Nation. The Mi'kmaq Nation has created numerous programs to provide its members with support services, housing, infrastructure and a medical clinic. To further benefit their community, Mi’kmaq tribal leaders continuously seek to create a more vibrant economy sensitive to cultural traditions and values. The Mi'kmaq Nation views Maine's Mobile Sports Betting Law as an important opportunity to increase our capacity to deliver essential governmental services to our citizens and to advance the self-sufficiency and self-determination of our Nation.
