History

Historical Context

BetMGM's new customer bonuses reflect the evolving landscape of American gambling, particularly post-2018 when the Supreme Court overturned PASPA. This shift allowed states to legalize sports betting, leading to increased competition and diverse promotional strategies reminiscent of the 1990s lottery boom, which similarly expanded state revenues.
