This project stood out to me because I am a big sports fan and also love to play fantasy sports. I learned from your project that sports betting being illegal in the U.S. has far back roots to the Puritans. I never knew this. One question I have is when do you expect more states to legalize sports betting, and will the recent COVID-19 outbreak delay this progress?
I was interested in this poster because I am a huge sports fan myself, so I had some previous knowledge regarding the recent legalization of sports betting. I learned that sports betting was first criminalized by the Puritans because I did not think that it was banned so early in the United States. In the graphic you have a number that states the four major sports will make $4.2 billion per year because of sports betting. Is that statistic simply a projection of their growth or were they able to isolate the impact of just sports betting?
