The 2019 NFL season kicks off tonight when the Bears take on the Packers.  So will you be GAMBLING on any games this year?

A new survey by the American Gaming Association found 38 MILLION adults will bet on at least one NFL game this year.  That’s about 15% of the adult population.  About 7 million of us will place bets through a casino.  Everyone else said they’ll just bet with their friends.

39% of “avid” NFL fans will place at least one bet this season.  And 75% of people who gamble said they’re more likely to watch a game if they’ve got some money on it.
