BetMGM ready to make splash in Arizona after opening first retail sportsbook
BetMGM is ready to create waves in Arizona after launching its first retail sportsbook.
Having already unveiled their first online sportsbook when the state approved and regulated sports betting in September, BetMGM now has a proper land-based location that they can call home.
And the new BetMGM sportsbook, which will be at the Gila Rivers Casinos and Hotels-owned property, will be rather spectacular. There will be 25 large screen displays, as well as 20 betting kiosks, and ticket writers, which will be available to help guests with placing their wagers.
This is now the third full-built retail sportsbook in Arizona, and to a certain extent, it marks a watershed moment for the state and BetMGM.
Of course, BetMGM has made significant strides in the past few years, and it is perhaps one of the most diverse betting brands in the world. While boxing and the razzmatazz of Vegas are arguably some of the things you associate with BetMGM, it is much more than that.
BetMGM also boasts one of the best apps in the business, and while it is forging a reputation for itself as a leading online sportsbook provider, it has strong roots in casino.
If you are looking to play some of the finest slots or classic table games powered by the finest software developers, then you will have no trouble finding them at BetMGM. The casino also has some very lucrative bonuses for new and existing customers, and it is undoubtedly one of the best online casinos USA has to offer.
And Gila River Hotels & Casinos Strategic Marketing Officer Dominic Orozco is delighted that his company will be able to house a retail sportsbook.
He said: “It’s unbelievable. We’re completely amazed by just the progress to get here.
“It’s been an over two-year goal and initiative of the enterprise to get sports wagering, and a sportsbook at the property.
“When you look at the marriage that was created, it’s something we’ve been working on for a long time. So, it’s been an amazing partnership.”
BetMGM has been inextricably linked to Arizona, partly through the partnership between the betting giant and the NFL franchise, the Arizona Cardinals.
Meanwhile, BetMGM has been named official betting partner of the New York Knicks, New York Rangers, and Madison Square Garden Arena.
The multi-year marketing partnership deal will see BetMGM have a heavy presence on the Knicks and Rangers’ social media channels.
But as far as the Arizona venture is concerned, these are very exciting times for BetMGM, and Arizona will be a very attractive proposition for residents in the future.
