Super Bowl Stadium Becomes Popular Betting Venue
The arena, which will host Super Bowl LVII in February, is near the top of GeoComply's analysis of transaction volumes originating from NFL stadiums. It will likely prove a wagering bonanza as Arizona ends up being the first regulated sports wagering state to host the Super Bowl considering that PASPA was overturned in 2018.
GeoComply's Chief Executive Officer Anna Sainsbury commented: "Seeing information from much of these video games that shows more than 10 percent of NFL fans in arenas are engaging with licensed sportsbooks is a clear win for states that choose to regulate sports wagering. This wealth of data is so important for legislators and sports leagues to identify sports betting policies in their states and at their stadiums."
Over the first 2 weeks of the NFL season, home opening games were played in the regulated states of Arizona, Colorado, Illinois, Louisiana, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania and Tennessee.
The Philadelphia Eagles' Lincoln Financial Field was the busiest stadium during weeks one and two. Remarkably, even with only one other active NFL video game to wager on, volumes escalated to 76,400 - more than any arena in the very first 2 weeks of the season.
Despite the fact that Steeler nation didn't keep pace with Eagles fans, their almost 40,000 deals in and around Acrisure Stadium on Sunday amounted to 28 percent of all activity for the city of Pittsburgh during the documented period
Based upon the information, bettors at the Ravens v. Jets game were more active at MetLife Stadium in week one than those at the very same stadium for the Panthers v. Giants video game in week 2. Both groups played on a Sunday.
