Potawatomi Casino signs sponsorship deal with Milwaukee Brewers in Wisconsin
The venue will become the baseball team’s exclusive casino partner.
US.- The Potawatomi Hotel & Casino in Wisconsin has signed a multi-year sponsorship agreement with Major League Baseball (MLB) franchise the Milwaukee Brewers. The casino will become the team’s exclusive casino partner and a new Potawatomi-branded entrance will be added right-field side at the team’s American Family Field home baseball stadium.
Build on a relationship that began more than two decades ago, the casino has also joined the 2022 Brewers Community Foundation Leadership Council, a group that supports initiatives including the Drive for Charity that provides four donation opportunities during the season.
Potawatomi Hotel & Casino chief executive and general manager, Dominic Ortiz, said: “Renewing our partnership with a championship-calibre team like the Milwaukee Brewers has been a top priority and will once again serve as a key component in our brand identity.
Brewers president of business operations, Rick Schlesinger, added: “We greatly appreciate the partnership with Potawatomi Hotel & Casino and their dedication to helping provide the best fan experience at American Family Field.
“Being both neighbours in the Menomonee River Valley and partners for over the past two decades, our mutual commitment has been a win-win. We look forward to the increased dedication and collaboration.”
In February, the Forest County Potawatomi Community signed a compact with the state of Wisconsin that allows in-person sports gambling at its two casinos, including Potawatomi Hotel & Casino, in Milwaukee, the state’s largest city. The amendment signed by governor Tony Evers is similar to agreements with the Oneida Nation and the St. Croix Chippewa Indians of Wisconsin.
