The History of Casinos in Oklahoma

In the early 1800s, Indigenoys tribes moved en-masse to Oklahoma against their will. About a century later, in 1916, all types of gambling were banned in the state, but in 1982 horse racing was legalized. 

Shortly after that, slot machines in race tracks were allowed as well and in 1987 the first high-stakes bingo game was organized. In 1992, all the tribes combined to sign a state compact that allowed them to offer bingo and lottery games and place slot machines in casinos built on their land. 

Sports betting is still not legalized in Oklahoma.
