Bay Mills Casino Michigan Opens DraftKings Retail Sportsbook
Contents
DraftKings Sportsbook has seen massive growth over the years, going from a daily fantasy sports-focused platform to one of the top names in online sports betting. This makes it easy to forget that in addition to the online DraftKings Sportsbook, you can also place wagers with the platform at retail sportsbooks.
Plenty of different casinos now showcase a DraftKings retail casino, such as Tulalip Resort Casino in the state of Washington and Casino Queen in Illinois. Well, DraftKings isn’t done expanding its retail offerings, as seen with the recent opening of a brand new in-person sportsbook at a popular Michigan resort and casino.
New Retail DraftKings Sportsbook Comes To Bay Mills Casino
Bay Mills Resort & Casino Michigan is looking for some massive growth in the future. The casino has plans for a huge $65 million expansion going into spring of 2023. Plus, to keep up with the increasingly massive world of sports wagering, the popular spot has also added a DraftKings retail sportsbook for users to place bets at. The in-person sportsbook is looking to be more of a full sports experience, with the opening ceremony featuring a broadcast of the hometown Detroit Lions taking on the Green Bay Packers, which was exciting for fans as Detroit pulled off the upset.
In addition to four different betting kiosks for sports bettors to place wagers, the DraftKings Sportsbook will have numerous boards to keep an eye on live lines as they continue to shift. Food and cocktails are also available to sports fans at the retail spot. Outside of the dedicated betting area, the Bay Mills Casino will also feature two DraftKings betting kiosks.
