Retail sports betting is now live at the MGM National Harbor in Maryland, US.
The first legal bet placed in the state was by Governor Larry Hogan at the BetMGM Sportsbook, on a football game.
He commented on the big day: “In addition to allowing Marylanders to bet on football, basketball and more, sports betting will also help to keep more dollars in-state and will provide another critical revenue source for public education without raising taxes on families and small businesses.”
The BetMGM Sportsbook and Lounge at National Harbor covers 8,000sq.m and has a 110ft long wraparound screen, seats 350 and has 15 betting kiosks and seven betting windows.
