Legal gambling on the Super Bowl set an all-time record for this year’s Nevada game.Nevada sports books wagered $185.6 million, according to the Nevada Gaming Control Board. That’s the biggest draw ever in a Nevada Super Bowl, and not surprising for the first Super Bowl held in Nevada.Despite legal sports gambling spreading across the country, Nevada sports books continue to rake in the cash. Bettors lost $6.8 million in the game.”Betting on the Super Bowl reached an all-time high and certainly met our expectations,” Michael Lawton, senior financial analyst for the Nevada Gaming Control Board, told the Las Vegas Review-Journal. “For example, the matchup with the West Coast team in the No. 2 seed market in Las Vegas, the defending champion and, of course, the game at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas made this year’s total.”Nevada had five bets of at least a million dollars: two wins on the Chiefs and three losses on the 49ers..
After his second retirement from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Tom Brady began adding to his investment portfolio. He made a handful of big deals, one of which became the owner of a Las Vegas sports franchise. One was the Aces, who won WNBA championships the last two seasons, and the other was the Las Vegas Raiders. But Bradyand#039; The purchase of the Raiders’ stake stalled when other NFL owners protested, arguing that the deal’s valuation was incorrect. With the deal, Brady’s ownership group would receive approximately
ten percent of the Raiders, while Brady would receive seven percent. Because the other owners felt the deal was below market value, Brady and the Raiders had to revise their deal based on feedback from the NFL before receiving approval from the other NFL owners.

advisors continue to observe the Brady Group agreement, and there is no set deadline for the agreement, which would still require owner approval.andquot; In addition to owning investments in two Las Vegas franchises, Brady remains active in sports. Next season, he plans to join the broadcast department and call NFL games, another wrinkle in the deal for Brady to become an
NFL team owner. The deal is still pending, however, and there appears to be a lot of work to be done, as the owners want Brady to pay the fair value of his ten percent franchise stake. Again, the sale price is the biggest red flag in the deal. Related: Which Buccaneer free agents are likely to return for the 2024 season?
