JERSEY CITY, N.J., Dec. 18, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- BetMGM
launched its market-leading sports betting app in Pennsylvania today, giving customers access to
benefits tied to MGM Resorts' iconic casino-resorts
nationwide. Today's announcement follows the recent introduction of
the company's iGaming offering to the state.
"The response to BetMGM Casino in Pennsylvania has been incredible and we're
thrilled to bring our best-in-class sports betting offering to the
Keystone State," said Adam

fans and we look forward to sharing the excitement of BetMGM with
them."
