RI Sports Betting Suit Can Move Forward Due to Lost Pats Bet

A Rhode Island judge is allowing a lawsuit about the state legalizing and launching sports betting to move forward because the plaintiff lost a bet on the New England Patriots.

A Superior Court judge sided with the state in September, ruling that Republican activist Daniel Harrop lacked standing to sue because he wasn't personally harmed by Rhode Island legalizing sports betting without voter approval any more than any other resident.

Harrop then produced evidence of a bet on a Patriots game last year and amended his complaint to cite the loss as grounds for standing, according to The Providence Journal.

Judge Brian Stern ruled Thursday that the bet was sufficient to allow the case to continue.
