Nevada: monthly sports betting revenue 2018-2024
In May 2024, Nevada generated a total revenue of 36.03 million U.S. dollars from sports betting, up from 30.79 million the previous month. Land-based sports betting has been legal in the U.S. state of Nevada since 1949. When the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act (PASPA) was passed by Congress in 1992, Nevada was handed a legal monopoly on single-game wagering in the United States. Meaning that for decades it was possible to play college sports betting, MLB sports betting, NBA sports betting, and live and off-track horse betting in the state. Nowadays, sports betting has also been legalized in other U.S. states.
