Mississippi and Montana reported 6.4 million and 700 thousand USD respectively.
According to the predictions of AGA, 31.4 million people were set to bet a whopping sum of 7.61 billion USD on the Super Bowl’s grand event. This would be a large improvement from the past year by 78%, as a lot of states have just recently introduced legal wagering to their players.
As stated by David Forman, the representative of AGA, the early statistics are very promising in relation to the preliminary predictions. He listed the growth percentage of particular states, saying that Nevada’s wagering number grew by 30% from 2020, and the New Jersey numbers increased by 20%. To him, it was an achievement, taken into account that there has been legal betting in New York since recently.
