Even Hawaii, a state that is notorious for its long-running anti-gambling stance, is actively studying the implementation of legal sports betting. According to the American Gaming Association, public support for sports betting is at an all-time high, where 79% of Americans support their state legalizing the pastime.
Happy Monday, everyone. This week will feature no shortage of sports betting news as most legal states should report their Super Bowl handle, but last week had plenty of news as well.

Top sports betting news: Penn outlines Barstool Sportsbook plans
Penn National focused its year-end earnings call heavily on its plans for Barstool Sportsbook, which will continue to roll out to new states this year.
Penn plans to enter the Illinois sports betting market first and hopes to be live by March Madness. After that, CEO Jay Snowden said to expect a new mobile state launch every three to five weeks in the other open and available states.
Retail sportsbook conversions to the Barstool Sportsbook brand will also continue, Snowden said. That begins with Pennsylvania casinos in the first half.
Snowden also noted the Penn Interactive business segment could be profitable since its acquiring customers at what he said are industry lows. It cost less than $200 per Michigan sports betting customer for Penn compared to the $300 to $800 per customer the rest of the industry pays, he added.
Penn National’s stock dipped in early pre-market trading after missing some financial estimates from Wall Street but eventually jumped to an all-time high of $128.91 by Friday’s close.
Arizona sports betting bills introduced
The latest attempt to legalize sports betting in Arizona might just have the legs to cross the finish line this year.
A joint proposal across both chambers includes sports betting licenses for Arizona’s professional sports teams and Indian gaming operators.
The proposal leaves out a few important details, such as a tax rate and license fees. The bills also call for official league data and would let leagues receive an integrity fee from sportsbooks.
Additional betting legislation round-up
There were seven other states with recent legislation news:
- Georgia passed its mobile-only sports betting bill out of a House committee.
- Kansas now has two sports betting proposals on the table with SB 84 and HB 2199.
- Hawaii is looking to combat a budget deficit with multiple gaming bills, including two that specifically legalize HI sports betting.
- Mississippi sports betting will go another year without statewide mobile as three bills failed to get a committee vote.
- There is a slew of bills looking to legalize sports betting in Missouri, with one self-interested request from Caesars for in-person registration.
- It seems like Virginia sports betting will get the correct amount of licenses last year’s bill sponsors originally wanted.
- Sports betting in Washington could include cardrooms if SB 5212 passes this session.

U.S. Integrity plays a crucial role in the development of the legal US sports betting market, Wayne Kimmel said. Kimmel is both a SeventySix Capital managing partner and sits on the U.S. Integrity board.
The company’s data-driven monitoring program uses account-level betting detail along with dozens of other data sets to look for irregular activity. The cash will fund continued innovation for new technology.
“The interest we received in this round validates our mission to provide conflict-free fraud detection tools to meet the ever-increasing demands of integrity compliance within the sports betting industry,” U.S. Integrity co-founder andCEO Matthew Holt said.
DraftKings makes play for Canada with NFL partnership
It might not technically be sports betting news, but DraftKings‘ expanded NFL partnership into Canada likely has more than just daily fantasy sports in mind.
The expanded exclusive DFS agreement gives DraftKings access to NFL branding and content opportunities in the DK app and across NFL Media.
The official release never talks sports betting but it’s probably not just a coincidence that sports betting in Canada looks ready to end its federal ban on single-game betting.
Elsewhere, DraftKings got its first investment from an ARK investment fund which helped send the stock to an all-time high by Friday’s close.
Iowa soars with remote registration
