Having the home team play in the Super Bowl paid off for the Atlantic City casino industry.
Preliminary wagering statistics reported by Atlantic City casinos and New Jersey equine racetracks show that wagering on Super Bowl LIX totaled approximately $168.7 million, with a projected total sports wagering payout of $143.5 million, Attorney General Matthew Platkin and the state Division of Gaming Enforcement announced Tuesday.
This resulted in a win of nearly $25.2 million for the sports wagering books.
The total wagering reflects a 19 percent increase over wagering from the 2024 Super Bowl, which was $141.6 million.
These revenue figures include New Jersey’s 11 retail sports books and 14 sports wagering mobile applications.
