This winning online touchdown comes just three weeks after the state launched sports betting at physical locations. The early numbers are impressive, with $4.5 million already in play, according to Gov. Andy Beshear. But here’s the real kicker: more than 60,000 fans had already signed up for mobile betting accounts before online Kentucky sports betting had kicked in.
Rep. Al Gentry, who co-sponsored the bill to make sports gaming legal, predicts big wins, saying, “We’re looking at 80 to 90 percent of tax revenues coming from mobile platform wagering.” But for Jeff Nefouse, a die-hard sports fan, this new era means he can finally keep up with his out-of-state buddies. No more road trips to Indiana, just fast and easy bets with friends, making every game day a winner. Life made simpler by the minute, with Kentucky sports betting!
