The Massachusetts Gambling Commission (MGC) has declared that it voted to grant Plainridge Park Casino a commercial sports gambling permit.
The MGC had postponed making a decision regarding the casino's permit due to operator Penn Entertainment's connections to Barstool Sports ceo Dave Portnoy. The announcement was made shortly after that. The MGC expressed its concern over news reports about Portnoy's purported problem gambling difficulties at the time of the deferment.
