History[edit]
The Osage originally named their casino business as the Osage Million Dollar Elm, changing it to Osage Casino in 2011.[2] The name referred to the history of the first mineral auctions conducted in 1922 for the Osage Tribe. They took place outside, under what was called the 'Million Dollar Elm' tree, in Pawhuska, Oklahoma. More than $1 million worth of Osage oil leases were auctioned there. Reporters and magazine writers coined the term to convey the excitement and scale of the auction when founders of the world’s greatest oil companies--Frank Phillips and E.W. Marland—came in person to bid on the Osage oil and natural gas leases.[3]
