Retail sportsbooks in Massachusetts
If you're not too keen to bet from home and prefer to place your bets in person, you have three major retail sportsbooks to choose from:
Encore Boston Harbor features the WynnBET Sportsbook, MGM Springfield houses the BetMGM Sportsbook, and Plainridge Park Casino offers the Barstool Sportsbook. These venues provide state-of-the-art betting lounges where you can watch the games and place your wagers. Doesn't sound too shabby, does it?

Popular sports to bet on in Massachusetts
As you know, Massachusetts is home to some of the most iconic teams in professional sports, with the Patriots arguably being one of the most successful franchises in the NFL.
In baseball, we have the Red Sox and in hockey, the Boston Bruins lead the charge, making betting on hockey games especially popular here. Oh, and let's not forget the Celtics which have the most NBA titles in league history.
It does seem like Massachusetts has fully embraced the sports betting scene, offering both online and in-person betting options to ladies (and gentlemen :-) - residents and visitors alike.
Now, we want to hear from you, Ladies. Do you live in MA and, more importantly, do you bet?
