Caesars Entertainment has expanded its offering in Louisiana, bringing two new sportsbooks and a poker room to the Pelican State.
Harrah’s New Orleans and Horseshoe Bossier City have each launched a Caesars Sportsbook as part of the company’s ongoing investment in Louisiana.
To mark this occasion, opening ceremonies were held at both properties. Harrah’s welcomed Leroy Mitchell Jr, aka “Whistle Monsta” – a so-called New Orleans Saints “superfan” – as well as Hall of Famer and former Saint Rickey Jackson.
Fellow sporting icon Archie Manning, as well as his son and television personality Cooper Manning, were also in attendance to witness Jackson place the first bet: a $1,000 wager on the Saints to win the Super Bowl.
