Super Bowl XLI 2007 Betting to Set Records | IXGAMES
More than half of all adults across the USA, about 112 million of us, will bet on the Super Bowl this weekend. # More than $8 billion will be bet, most with back-street bookies, offshore, on the Internet (Online Sportsbooks). # Only between $90 million and $100 million will be bet in Nevada. Laws against online betting today are as silly as was the ban on booze before Prohibition ended with the 21st Amendment in 1933. The silliness of betting bans is illustrated when governors, mayors and even university presidents of teams involved in big games now usually publicly announce bets with each other. In some states, that’s not illegal. Same is true of office pools if the organizer doesn’t take a cut. Politicians in Nevada take a bite for the state on all legal gambling. If Super Bowl betting there is around $100 million, the state tax take could be more than$1 million. Prohibition didn’t work and neither has banning sports betting in 49 states. Law enforcement officials need to concentrate on arresting terrorists, not bookmakers and bettors!!!!! NOW GO AND BET ON YOUR Super Bowl: Online Sport betting Games  (Yes, Bush Is an Idiot). 🙂
