Connecticut is in a perfect location for sports fans, with proximity to both New York and Boston sports teams. Because of that, the appetite for sports and sports betting has reached a fever pitch, with sports betting finally set to launch in the state. And with FanDuel Sportsbook up and running, bettors can get involved with new player promos that span multiple sports as sports betting is finally available in the Constitution State.
FanDuel Risk-Free Bet Promo
Alternatively, bettors can utilize the risk-free bet promo that FanDuel Sportsbook offers to new players. With this bonus, first-time users on FanDuel can place a wager on an upcoming sporting event and risk up to $1,000 on it. If the bet wins, that bettor can keep their profits and either continue betting or withdraw them as they see fit. And if that first bet is not successful, the bettor will be reimbursed for the amount they risked, up to $1,000.

This offer can be used on just about any sport with an upcoming game, instead of having to use it on the first two nights of the NBA. It has a higher bonus amount as well, though this offer is paid out in site credit, as bettors can get up to $1,000 in site credit if their first bet does not win.
Upcoming Sports Around Connecticut
With Connecticut having immediate access to both New York and Boston, there are plenty of nearby sporting events to get excited about. The New England Patriots, New York Giants and New York Jets are all in the middle of their seasons, with upcoming games for all three teams on the NFL schedule.
There is also the start of NBA season to look forward to, as the New York Knicks, Brooklyn Nets and Boston Celtics are all expected to figure into the playoff picture in the Eastern Conference. And there is still baseball to be enjoyed in the region, as the Boston Red Sox are just a few games away from a world championship.
About FanDuel In Connecticut
FanDuel Sportsbook’s launch in Connecticut includes an online wagering component as well as a land-based component. The popular sportsbook has partnered with Mohegan Sun in this state to offer land-based wagering. As far as online betting goes, bettors of legal age who are located within the state are able to place bets so long as they use location verification software either on their computer or mobile devices.
The partnership with Mohegan Sun makes sense for both parties, as FanDuel is one of the biggest sportsbook brands operating in the US while Mohegan Sun is one of the biggest casinos in Connecticut. There is also a sports tie-in with Mohegan Sun, as Mohegan Sun Arena is the home venue for the Connecticut Sun of the WNBA.
