Minnesota tribal casino launches DFS site; DraftKings, FanDuel return to TV

The tribal operators of Minnesota’s Grand Casino Mille Lacs have launched a new daily fantasy sports site ahead of the new NFL season.

This week saw the launch of Granfantasysports.com, a DFS site powered by EZFantasy LLC, a member of the Small Businesses of Fantasy Sports Trade Association. The site’s stats are supplied by Sportradar US and payments are handled by PayPal.

The site is currently only accepting customers from California, Colorado, Kansas, Minnesota, Mississippi, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Dakota, West Virginia, and Wisconsin.

The casino is run by the Mille Lacs Band of Ojibwe, a federally recognized tribe that also runs the Grand Casino Hinckley. The tribe isn’t a stranger to digital gaming, having offered IGT’s DoubleDown Casino social gaming product to its customers for some time now.
