Super Bowl Stadium Becomes Popular Betting Venue
The stadium, 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 show a wagering bonanza as Arizona ends up being the first regulated sports betting state to host the Super Bowl given that PASPA was reversed in 2018.
GeoComply's Chief Executive Officer Anna Sainsbury commented: "Seeing data from much of these games that reveals more than 10 percent of NFL fans in stadiums are engaging with licensed sportsbooks is a clear win for states that pick to manage sports betting. This wealth of information is so crucial for legislators and sports leagues to determine sports wagering policies in their states and at their stadiums."
Over the very 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 arena during weeks one and two. Remarkably, even with only one other active NFL game to bet on, volumes skyrocketed to 76,400 - more than any arena in the first two weeks of the season.
Even though Steeler nation didn't keep pace with Eagles fans, their almost 40,000 transactions around Acrisure Stadium on Sunday amounted to 28 percent of all activity for the city of Pittsburgh throughout the recorded time period
Based on the data, wagerers at the Ravens v. Jets game were more active at MetLife Stadium in week one than those at the exact same stadium for the Panthers v. Giants game in week two. Both groups played on a Sunday.
Over 44,300 geolocation checks were recorded in week one by 8,800 fans at the Jets game, however when the Giants went back to the Metlife Stadium this previous weekend 38,800 checks were logged by 800 less fans (unique accounts).
