IP Casino debuts sportsbook
3 Aug 2018
The IP sports book opened at noon Central Time today near Highlights Sports Lounge, located on the second floor of the IP. The IP’s parent company, Boyd Gaming, also opened a sports book at Sam’s Town Tunica Hotel & Gambling Hall earlier today. The sports-betting operations are Boyd Gaming’s first sports books outside of the state of Nevada.
“The debut of our sports books in Mississippi, together with our recently-announced strategic partnership with FanDuel Group, are important milestones for our Company as we begin to participate in the expansion of sports betting across the United States,” said Keith Smith, President and Chief Executive Officer of Boyd Gaming. “Expanded sports betting is an exciting growth opportunity, offering us another way to diversify our business and expand our appeal – and Boyd Gaming is well-positioned to be a leader in this emerging business.”
