WASHINGTON – BetMGM went live on Thursday at the Nationals Park in Washington, five months after publicizing their partnership with the MLB team.
The Washington Nationals games will have sports betting available for fans at the stadium via the BetMGM application as well as within a two-block radius of the venue.
Washington DC sports betting laws only allow for a radius of two-blocks from any sportsbook venue for gamblers to access their mobile platforms.
“As our official sports betting partner, BetMGM further enhances the greatest in-venue fan experience in Washington, D.C. through its state-of-the-art entertainment products and services,” said Alan Gottlieb, Chief Operating Office of Lerner Sports Group. “The BetMGM mobile app will enable our fans to engage with the game in new and exciting ways, while the BetMGM sportsbook connected to Nationals Park will provide Nationals fans and the D.C. community with a first-class gathering place to celebrate their passion for sports.”
What This Means For Nationals’ Fans
At the moment, the mobile sportsbook is the only thing that is available to Nationals’ fans in the area or at the game. Construction for a retail sportsbook within the stadium will begin later during the year.
