OLATHE, Kan., Aug. 25, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Butler National Corporation (OTCQB: BUKS), through its wholly-owned subsidiary that manages Boot Hill Casino & Resort in Dodge City, Kansas, has entered into an agreement with Golden Nugget Online Gaming, LLC (GNOG), a subsidiary of DraftKings, Inc. (NASDAQ: DKNG), that could bring GNOG's online interactive sportsbook to Kansas, subject to receipt of licenses and regulatory approvals.

Butler National is a recognized provider of professional management services in the gaming industry and a leader in special mission aircraft modifications.

Upon the launch of sports wagering in Kansas, anyone legally permitted within the geographical boundaries of Kansas will be able to place bets directly from their mobile devices or computers by accessing a participating sports book or visiting a lottery gaming facility.

"Golden Nugget Online Gaming is a recognized and established brand within the gaming industry.  We're thrilled our customers may soon experience all the excitement that online sports betting has to offer," added Stewart.  "We're excited for Golden Nugget Online Gaming, to be able to bring Kansans a seamless, safe and premium sports betting experience through its Golden Nugget Online Gaming-branded sportsbook, subject to receipt of requisite regulatory approvals." 

GNOG's mobile sportsbook would offer eligible Kansans a robust, interactive suite of sports betting solutions and Kansas City fans will recognize the "Golden Nugget Online Gaming" brand as a trusted and legacy provider of gaming entertainment.

"We are looking forward to driving new tourism and revenue for the State of Kansas into Dodge City," said Stewart.
