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 deal volumes originating from NFL arenas. It will likely prove a betting gold mine as Arizona becomes the very first regulated sports betting state to host the Super Bowl since PASPA was overturned in 2018.
GeoComply's Chief Executive Officer Anna Sainsbury commented: "Seeing information from numerous of these video games that shows more than 10 percent of NFL fans in stadiums are engaging with licensed sportsbooks is a clear win for states that pick to regulate sports wagering. This wealth of information is so crucial for lawmakers and sports leagues to identify sports betting policies in their states and at their stadiums."
Over the very first two weeks of the NFL season, home opening games were played in the regulated states of Arizona, Colorado, Illinois, Louisiana, Michigan, New Jersey, New York City, Pennsylvania and Tennessee.
The Philadelphia Eagles' Lincoln Financial Field was the busiest arena throughout weeks one and 2. Remarkably, even with just one other active NFL video game to wager on, volumes increased to 76,400 - more than any stadium in the first two weeks of the season.
Even though Steeler country didn't keep speed 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 on the data, wagerers at the Ravens v. Jets video game were more active at MetLife Stadium in week one than those at the very same arena for the Panthers v. Giants video game in week two. Both groups played on a Sunday.
Over 44,300 geolocation checks were taped in week one by 8,800 fans at the Jets video game, but when the Giants returned to the Metlife Stadium this previous weekend 38,800 checks were logged by 800 less fans (special accounts).
