DRAFT Announces $100K NFL Live Final in Nashville

The biggest rising star in the DFS landscape, DRAFT, continues to make big moves in the industry. They recently acquired the domain rights for draft.com (replacing playdraft.com), and this follows big news in the past six months that included Paddy Power Betfair acquiring the company and sponsorship deals with numerous big-name athletes, including Floyd Mayweather and Shaquille O’Neal.

Recently they started accepting signups for their just announced live NFL final in their lobby, and it’ll be held in conjunction with the RotoGrinders annual party here in Nashville, Tennessee.

Let’s learn more about this exciting opportunity to win a “Golden Ticket” to this exclusive event.
