SB209 allows licensed bars and restaurants that sell alcohol to offer sports wagering to customers, expanding gambling opportunities beyond the current casinos in Deadwood. The bill adds sports betting to South Dakota's existing gaming law and lets customers place bets either in person or through prepaid accounts at these licensed establishments. This creates a new revenue stream for certain alcohol retailers while bringing sports wagering under state regulation and commission oversight.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
