By William - 1 September 2022
FanDuel has launched its online sportsbook in Kansas and will open a temporary retail sportsbook at the Kansas Star Casino with Boyd Gaming later today.
On September 8, there will be a grand opening of the FanDuel Sportsbook at Kansas Star. To mark the occasion, Kansas native and former NFL star wide receiver Jordy Nelson will place the ceremonial first bet.
Opening in time for the 2022 NFL season, the FanDuel Sportsbook at Kansas Star Casino, is located just south of Wichita on I-35. Stretching over 2,100 square feet, the sportsbook will serve as a one-stop-shop for fans to enjoy sporting events while placing wagers on the action.
The sportsbook will be open year-round and feature four betting windows, 28 HD televisions, seating for 40 customers, and 20 IGT PlaySports self-service betting kiosks.
The FanDuel Sportsbook brings its online sports betting experience to the sports fans of Kansas, who will now be able to place wagers across the state on professional and college football, basketball, baseball, hockey, golf, MMA, boxing, soccer, and tennis with a variety of betting and payment options available.
With this launch, the Boyd-FanDuel partnership will expand to seven states, with Kansas joining Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Louisiana, Mississippi and Pennsylvania, and becomes the 16th state where FanDuel offers mobile sports betting.
