When sports betting became legal in Arizona last September, it set the national record for most money bet in the first month of legal sports betting in any one state.
The new form of gambling still has room to grow in the Grand Canyon State, as more mobile sports betting apps and in-person casino sportsbooks have opened since September with more still planned.
“This is a brand-new market for the state, so I suspect it will continue grow over the next few years, for sure,” said Max Hartgraves, spokesman for the Arizona Department of Gaming.
