VSiN (Vegas Stats and Information Network) and Kroenke Sports & Entertainment have joined forces to give Denver sports fans a new home for quality sports betting programming. Altitude Sports Radio 92.5 made the announcement this morning that starting on Monday November 1st, Altitude Sports 950AM will convert to a 24/7 sports betting information format, airing VSiN’s best in class sports betting news and analysis across every major sport 24/7, outside of live sporting events. The station previously aired FOX Sports Radio 24.7. FSR will remain in the KSE family, airing on weeknights and the weekends (when play-by-play commitments don’t conflict) on Altitude Sports Radio 92.5.
“With hundreds of millions of dollars bet on sports in Colorado, credible sports betting information and analysis is increasingly valuable to Denver sports fans,” said Dave Fleck, GM/SVP at Altitude Sports Radio. “Our listeners have repeatedly told us that they want informative, quality content focused on sports gaming. We’re responding to those listeners by bringing them some of the most knowledgeable sports betting talk in the business, as we become the home of VSiN in Denver.”
VSiN programming on Altitude 950 AM will be provided by leading media and industry experts including morning talk personalities Mitch Moss and Pauly Howard, former Denver Bronco and Denver radio host, Mike Pritchard, former pro football executive Michael Lombardi, sports betting analytics expert Gill Alexander, and sportscasting legend Brent Musburger.
“We couldn’t be more excited to team with Altitude Sports Radio and Kroenke Sports & Entertainment to offer Denver sports fans premium sports betting content around the clock,” said Brian Musburger, founder, and CEO of VSiN. “VSiN has assembled a quality roster of sports betting experts that will deliver an innovative brand of sports talk in a state that has been at the forefront of legalized sports betting.”
VSiN was acquired by DraftKings Inc. (NASDAQ: DKNG) in March and continues to deliver news, analysis, and insights that sports bettors need to make informed wagering decisions. The network operates out of Las Vegas at both Circa and the South Point Casino. Since arriving on the scene in February 2017, VSiN has established itself on both television and radio thru a series of partnerships with companies such as YouTube, iHeart Radio, MSG, NESN, Marquee Sports Network, AT&T Pittsburgh, Rogers Sportsnet, Fubo, and local radio stations across the country.
