Designed to deliver the ultimate “Watch & Wager” experience, Gridiron Pit invites guests to catch every snap on large TV screens while enjoying blackjack games, seat-side food and drinks and photo-ready football-themed décor. Guests can also win exciting prizes through spins on the Big Wheel of Prizes throughout the season.

Highlights include:
