Amidst the ongoing construction activity at the future Sports & Social at Pike & Rose, one unannounced attraction is already lit up. A FanDuel Sportsbook logo sign is now lit inside the sports bar. Such sports betting has been approved by Maryland voters and legislators, but is not yet legal in the state. Gambling was not mentioned as a feature in press releases or media reports when Sports & Social was announced for Pike & Rose, but the brand's Hanover Maryland Live! casino location is set up for future sports betting with FanDuel.

The FanDuel website confirms that its Sportsbook kiosks are not legal in Maryland yet. Even though sports betting has the green light, it is currently tied up in regulatory red tape that has delayed its launch. It could go forward as soon as this fall, however.

Some apparently theft-proof flatscreen monitors have been installed on the patio outside the sports bar, as well as permanent signage. Sports & Social will be located at 11800 Grand Park Avenue in North Bethesda.
Some actual nightlife. Amazing.
