Quote of the Day

“The 2020 election is the most bet-on event in history. It surpassed the 2016 election earlier this month. There’s been over $260 million, so far, laid down. Again, for scale, that exceeds what was wagered on the last Super Bowl, Kentucky Derby, NBA Finals, and the Mayweather-MacGregor fight, put together. It’s absolutely remarkable given that betting activity is only going to increase with just five days still to go. With such a huge amount already laid down, it would take a monumental bet or a monumental series of bets to really shake up these odds with just over 100 hours to go.”—OddsCheckerUS spokesman Pete Watt.
