The Detroit Lions have an official sports betting partner for the first time. The Lions have paired with BetMGM, an extension of the team’s prior partnership with MGM Resorts.
The BetMGM Sports Lounge at MGM Grand Detroit opened in March after in-person sports wagering was made legal in the state of Michigan. The partnership between the Lions and BetMGM also includes a bingo game on the Lions app that allows fans to predict certain outcomes throughout the game.
The Detroit Lions historic relationship with BetMGM has been years in the making and we’re proud to announce details of our official partnership,” said Detroit Lions Team President Rod Wood in a joint statement. “We’re continuously seeking new ways to entertain and involve our fans which is especially important during such unusual times; this partnership with BetMGM will provide additional and exciting opportunities to engage our fans.”
Lions Wire, via the USA TODAY SMG, also has a partnership with BetMGM, as a full disclosure. It is not in any way affiliated with the Detroit Lions or the team’s partnership with MGM.
