“We’re allowing betting lounges,” Halpin said, via ESPN. “Similar to daily fantasy lounges today, in an adult, discreet area, there will be a betting setup, but we’re not going to have betting windows.”
As fans can’t actually place bets at betting windows at the stadium — it does mark a major step for the league. This test run of sorts could eventually lead to full-fledged betting at games in the coming years, should things go well both with these new lounges and with legislation throughout the country.
“We feel good about how [sports betting has] evolved state by state,” Halpin said, via ESPN. “We’re more and more excited about how sports betting is developing, and we’re now doing more in the space. We’re very positive about how it’s developing.”
Just another step towards free for all gambling.
