How big is March Madness for Vegas?
The state expects to handle somewhere around $130 million to $150 million on the NCAA tournament. The Super Bowl 50 handle was $132.5, according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal. Three weeks vs. one weekend, too. That’s why Vegas can charge $149-$199 to reserve a seat at a sports book. You guys eat it up, so Vegas is going to keep trying to take even more money out of your wallet. Go visit with our old friend Matt Youmans at the LVRJ to learn about who the wise guys are throwing money on. Are you thinking this is the year Cinderella wins it all? See below.
