If it wasn’t for sports betting, Las Vegas would be a totally different vibe. Now with professional teams in town, even more so. In doing so, this attracts more tourists to come to Vegas to watch their teams play against our home teams. Having sports allows locals to place their bets not only on that game but other games as well. According to Statista, in November of 2023, sports betting brought in $40.99 million in Vegas. While that seems like a lot, it’s actually down from October’s $61 million. City growth wouldn’t be possible without the sports books.
Get Your Bets In
When it comes to sports betting, things have really evolved. Before mobile apps and the internet, you physically had to walk into a sports book to see the odds and place your bets. Vegas hotels knew that making it an experience would draw betters to their sports book over others. This meant ramp up amenities like making seating more comfortable, big screens, drink and food service, and much more. Now some hotels are taking the sports book experience to a whole different level. Adding restaurant viewing access, two story viewing and that’s just the tip of the iceberg.
All these things combined make for the perfect sports watching experience. That’s why sports betting at sports books is so huge. It’s easy. You can do it from an app on your phone, without even stepping foot into a sports book. Even though app sports betting is available now, millions still pass through the sports book because of the experience it offers. So when in Las Vegas, what sports book should you go to for the best sports experience? Below you’ll find 5 of the top sports books we think you’d like, whether you’re a visitor from out of town or a local here in the valley.
