Dave Mason of BetOnline celebrated this occasion via Twitter.

"Five year anniversary of the biggest new sign-up day in the history of @betonline_ag. Not sure if we will ever beat that record. Also the five year anniversary of the biggest betting value of all time. Conor McGregor vs. Floyd Mayweather. Man what a fun event that was."
