Mets partner with Caesars to open sportsbook at Citi Field this season

The New York Mets have entered a multi-year partnership with Caesars Entertainment to make Caesars Sportsbook their official sports betting partner, the sides announced Wednesday.

The partnership includes plans to open a sportsbook at Citi Field this season called Caesars Sportsbook at Metro Grille. It makes the Mets just the latest on a long list of professional sports teams with sportsbooks at their home stadiums.

The Mets’ sportsbook will be an upscale 13,000 square foot venue on the Excelsior Level of Citi Field, according to the press release. It will include a multi-tiered dining room and outdoor patio seating complete with panoramic views overlooking left field.

This partnership comes just months after the legalization of mobile sports betting in New York. The state set a record for money wagered in a single month in any state. 

“New York is a key state for us following the successful launch of our Caesars Sportsbook app in January,” co-president of Caesars Digital Chris Holdren said. “The Mets’ fanbase is one of the most loyal in baseball and this partnership offers us the chance to treat those passionate fans like Caesars. We look forward to opening our space at Citi Field during an exciting time for the franchise.”
