College football is wrapping up this month and some of your favorite SEC, AAC or Conference USA teams will be heading to bowl games this year!
You don’t need the bright lights of a stadium to enjoy the majesty of the South’s most beloved pastime. Instead, you can travel to Tunica and experience high-end amenities, dedicated sportsbooks, and, of course, a variety of resort locations to cheer on your favorite team. Located just 30 minutes south of Memphis, Tunica is centrally located for fun and winning!
Speaking of our sister city, University of Memphis is headed to Dallas for the First Responder Bowl vs Utah State on Tuesday, December 27. Put on your blue, grab lunch at the Hollywood Café and yell “Go Tigers!” at one of our six casino resorts.
Then on Wednesday, December 28, Liberty Bowl in Memphis, TN will welcome Kansas vs Arkansas. Come hang in Tunica before or after the game to place your bets and celebrate a win. Can’t get a bowl ticket? Tunica’s got you covered with dozens of big screen TVs and drinks at the bar! You can also catch Ole Miss play Texas Tech in the Texas Bowl the same day.
On New Year’s Eve, head to Tunica to cheer on the No. 1 team Georgia at the Peach Bowl or No. 5 Alabama at the Sugar Bowl and we bet you’ll go all in at one of Tunica’s 6 sports books.
January 2 will include Mississippi State vs Illinois at the ReliaQuest Bowl and LSU vs Purdue at the Citrus Bowl.
And while you’re waiting for the game to start, Tunica’s got a ton of promotions, as well as live entertainment during the holiday season.
