NEW YORK, NY — SEPT. 13, 2021 — — The Game Day is a digital sports media company for the next generation of sports fans and sports betting enthusiasts. The Game Day is celebrating its one-year anniversary and reaching company milestones, garnering over 100 Million Monthly Impressions and continually exceeding audience growth records on a weekly basis.

To celebrate this noteworthy milestone, The Game Day is kicking off the 2021-22 NFL Season with a wide variety of premium live and non-live programming and content.
βWhen we launched a year ago, we laid odds on the fact that the U.S. gambling marketplace was still ripe for opportunities and had room for another leading sports media platform,β said Matt Heiman, Co-Founder and CEO, The Game Day. βDelivering 100 Million Monthly impressions while operating solely by word of mouth has proven our bet correct. As we add new and more engaging programming and content, hosted by some of the best in the sports business as well as up and coming social media superstars, we are looking forward to a great NFL season and beyond.β
