About DraftKings — Partnered with Bay Mills Community

• Online Launch: January 22, 2021

DraftKings struck up a deal with the Bay Mills Community, located on the Upper Peninsula, in June 2020, and both sides say the partnership is about matching cultures. Bay Mills, a small, remote tribe, sees itself as an upstart that has to think outside of the box, and believes that DraftKings has done just that on its way dominating the sports betting space along with rival FanDuel.

Despite going forward with an online launch through Bay Mills Casino and Kings Club Casino, DraftKings has yet to open a retail sportsbook at either location. Bay Mills Casino’s website says a live DK sportsbook is coming this summer, but no specific dates were provided
