Dodgers Add Kalshi as Sponsor, Putting Casino Partner in an Awkward Spot
Summary
Kalshi has secured a sponsorship deal with the Los Angeles Dodgers, placing its branding on digital outfield boards and behind home plate at Dodger Stadium. This puts Kalshi alongside Yaamava' Resort & Casino, the team's long-time official casino partner owned by the San Manuel Nation, which has publicly opposed sports prediction markets as infringing on tribal sovereignty and IGRA rights. The sponsorship signals Kalshi's push into mainstream sports visibility despite ongoing legal challenges from New York and regulatory scrutiny from the CFTC. The deal's financial terms are undisclosed, but the placement at a marquee MLB venue is a notable marketing win. Watch for any response from San Manuel or the American Gaming Association, which has already warned leagues against prediction market partnerships.
