MARCH MADNESS IS UPON US
Another mobile provider, Resorts World New York, joined the list of live operators in the Empire State on Thursday. Their launch comes at a great time with the NCAA men’s college basketball tournament less than two weeks away.
March Madness always has been a huge sports wagering event, with games taking place over a three-week span. Selection Sunday, when the field of 68 teams is unveiled, is March 13, with first and second rounds taking place March 17-20.
New York bettors get to experience this for the first time and it will be interesting to see official figures coming in each week during the month.
Let the Madness begin!
