Your Panthers

The Florida Panthers knocked off a team that had the best season record in the NHL ever, the Boston Bruins. 

Your Heat

Even without their star Tyler Herro, the Heat managed to advance in the NBA Playoffs by beating one of the better teams in the NBA, the Milwaukee Bucks.

Red Hot Tampa Bay Rays

The Rays were also making Florida proud to start of the 2023 MLB season with an amazing 13 game win streak to go undefeated through the first two weeks of the season.

Can FanDuel Be Coming to Florida Soon?

FanDuel is actually relatively new to the sports betting scene.  In fact, while the company has been a leader in daily fantasy sports over the past five years, they only entered sports wagering back in 2018.  Now they operate in over two dozen states taking bets.

Florida is conflicted when it comes to gambling expansion.  On one hand you have Disney opposed to any form of gambling.  On the other hand you have the Seminoles looking to maintain their monopoly.  These unlikey bedfellows joined forces to get a referendum on the 2018 ballot requiring voters to decide on any gambling expansion.  The result is that voters will do just that.  Both firms obviously believe the majority will be against it.

Whether voters will be against sports betting remains to be seen.   Efforts to get a ballot initiative in 2022 failed miserably.  And since that time Hard Rock launched as the exclusive sports betting site of Florida courtesy of the Seminoles.
