Much like the Denver Broncos, bettors in Colorado had plenty of problems generating wins in September.
The Colorado Department of Revenue announced a record $51.3 million in gross sports wagering revenue for September, adding to the lengthy parade of states that have set monthly records in an unprecedented rout of the public in the post-PASPA era.
The September figure was nearly double August’s haul of $25.9 million and easily shattered the previous standard of $36.8 million established last November — the last time operators went on a rampage of this level nationally. Colorado became the eighth state this month to reach $50 million in revenue.
