The Tonto Apache Tribe, owner of the Mazatzal Hotel & Casino, has forged a strategic alliance with Fanatics Betting and Gaming to introduce its online sports betting platform, Fanatics Sportsbook, in Arizona.
With the recent launch of the online Fanatics Sportsbook in the state, sports bettors residing in and visiting Arizona can now access the platform via iOS and Android devices. Moreover, plans are underway to establish a physical Fanatics Sportsbook retail outlet within the Mazatzal Hotel & Casino premises later this summer.
“The tribe’s partnering with Fanatics Betting and Gaming, a national leader in the sports betting space, will allow the tribe to provide for the general welfare of our tribal members, but will also benefit all Arizona citizens,” said Tonto Apache Chairman Calvin Johnson.
Hubert Nanty, General Manager of Mazatzal Casino, said: "We are excited to have a Fanatics Sportsbook at our facility and look forward to our patrons enjoying all sporting events throughout the year in our new sportsbook."
Ari Borod, Chief Business Officer of Fanatics Betting and Gaming, hailed the collaboration with the Tonto Apache Tribe and Mazatzal Hotel & Casino as a significant milestone.
"We are thrilled to partner with the Tonto Apache Tribe and Mazatzal Hotel & Casino to bring the Fanatics Sportsbook to Arizona," Borod said. "Arizona is a state with tons of options for sports fans, from baseball, to hockey, to golf to football to racing, making it the ideal destination for the most rewarding online sportsbook."
