BetMGM’s $50,000 “King of the Weekend” Contest and More Football Promotions Kick Off New Season

Football is back and BetMGM is kicking off its biggest season yet with free-to-play games, unique contests and more to add to the game day electricity. Highlights include:

• King of the Weekend (NFL): BetMGM is debuting a weekly free-to play game where all players compete for $50,000 by guessing the weekend's top six scoring NFL teams in the correct order. Even if no one guesses all six correctly, $1,000 will be awarded each week to the customer who makes the most correct predictions. 

• 8-Bit Barry (NFL): Celebrating the nostalgia of retro football video games, BetMGM Celebrity Ambassador Barry Sanders is ruling the virtual gridiron once again in this free-to-play game. Every week, the BetMGM player picks an option for Barry Sanders to spin, juke or stiff arm. If the player chooses correctly leaving the defender in the dust, they will be gifted free bets, bonuses and even experiential prizes. (Pictured Below)  

• Free $20 Bet Week 1 (NFL): All BetMGM users start out a winner with $20 added into every account to make a wager on the Week 1 action. 

• One Game Parlay Bet & Get (College Football): Showcasing the unique ways fans can get in on the action, BetMGM is featuring its one-game parlay functionality that allows players to build unique bets focused on outcomes within one game. For Weeks 1-3, players who place $25 on a one-game parlay will get $10 back to place on any live bet for college football. 

• BetMGM REDZONE Challenge (NFL): Players become winners, and winners become champions with BetMGM’s REDZONE Challenge giving users missions to accomplish each week. Whether it is placing a one-game parlay or hitting a specific prop, BetMGM will pose different challenges for players to tackle each week that will earn them increasing rewards as they progress through the REDZONE.
