Alabama gambling was one of the first to appear among the states in the south. There are currently only three Alabama casinos that operate today. It started with the formation of the Alabama Racing Commission in 1971. Regulations set forth by the commission permitted municipalities with 300,000 or more residents to hold referendums to determine whether racing should be permitted within the county or city. This law applies to greyhounds and horses. There are currently two greyhound tracks in operation. Off-track betting is also permitted.

Land-Based Casinos. This would be like the casinos in Las Vegas or Atlantic City. Casino gambling was legalized in Nevada in 1931 and it was the only state to offer that type of gambling until 1977 when New Jersey legalized casinos for its seaside resort town of Atlantic City. It is these land-based, stand-alone. Sep 13, 2011 Many states allow players who are 18 and over to gamble however many states have given the casinos the authority to regulate the gambling age at their facility. The minimum gambling age within each state is affected by various factors such as game selected and licensor. By this, we mean state-regulated online gambling options require domestic players, whether residents or visitors, to abide by the state's minimum gambling age for that form of gambling on land within the state's borders.

Types of Alabama Online Gambling Allowed

The only form of online gambling legal in Alabama is off-track betting. This includes greyhounds and horses. The state permits skill games to be played for money. Daily fantasy sports sites that include DraftKings and FanDuel feel that their product falls under these laws. Alabama lawmakers and the state attorney general have yet to issue any opinion to the contrary.

Types of Live Alabama Gambling

There are three forms of live legalized gambling in Alabama.

Greyhound Racing

The oldest is greyhound racing. It dates back to 1973 when the first race with pari-mutuel betting at the Mobile Greyhound Park. There were four greyhound tracks in Alabama at one time. Only two operate today. Those tracks are the Mobile Greyhound Park and Birmingham Race Track.

Horseracing

Horseracing is also legal in Alabama. The Birmingham Race Track operated horse racing from 1984 to 1992. The track ran into financial difficulties and ended horseracing. No track offered thoroughbred betting since then.

Video Bingo

Video bingo found a way through a back-door in the early 2000’s. The operators cited the legalization of auto-daubing, meaning a machine is able to cover the numbers called. This translation permitted video bingo displayed in a slot format, or so the operators thought. Alabama state law enforcement raided VictoryLand in Shorter and other facilities after threatening to shut the businesses down.

All tracks ceased video bingo operations in the state. Three reservations launched video bingo while the state raided the tracks. Creek Casino Montgomery, Wind Creek Casino Wetumpka, and Wind Creek Casino Atmore continue offering these games under the same premise the tracks did. No gaming pact has been created. Despite only offering video bingo and slot machines, they still refer to themselves as Alabama casinos.
