The Best Casino Experiences To Try Out In Michigan
Legalized mobile/online and in-person sports betting has been live in Michigan for two and a half years now, having launched in March 2020.
This came less than two years after the Supreme Court of the United States overturned the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act of 1992 (PASPA), which was signed into law in October of that year.
The PASPA barred sports gambling from taking place in most parts of the United States. But the Supreme Court ruled that the act was a violation of the country’s Tenth Amendment. The decision allowed every U.S. state to launch mobile/online and/or in-person sports betting if they so desired.
Michigan is one of 30 U.S. states that currently allows some form of sports wagering. The states of Maryland and Ohio are expected very soon, with Massachusetts and California also potentially joining the industry before long.
With that said, here’s a look at some of the top casino apps and experiences to try out when you’re in Michigan.

Sports fans in Michigan should know that the Great Lakes Offers great promo codes on BetMGM when you sign up with the sportsbook. BetMGM offers new customers in Michigan a $50 casino bonus, a $20 free wager and a hundred percent deposit match of up to $1,500.
