September 13, 2020

The new sportsbook at Island Resort and Casino in Harris opened Thursday prior to the NFL Thursday night football game. The casino is the first in the Upper Peninsula to open an onsite sportsbook, and the ninth in the state to open.

Sports bets can be placed in the T.McC's Sports Bar inside the casino. Tony Mancilla, Island Resort and Casino general manager, expects to draw sports fans from a wide geography including Wisconsin.

"The Green Bay market is a big sports market and we will be the closest to them. I think it will have a big effect with traffic and people who want to bet on the NFL. It's exciting in that sense, and for the U.P. with having the largest market here. A sportsbook is something people have been asking for."
