In May 2018, the US Supreme Court overturned decades of sports betting prohibition and ushered in an era where folks across the country can now place sports wagers legally.
California is not likely to license sportsbooks any time soon, however. This is mostly a result of conflicting agendas between the powerful Tribes and lawmakers.
The San Francisco 49ers were favorites to win the Super Bowl in 2024 at 5-1 ahead of Week 6.
