Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear vetoed on Monday HB 904, the bill that would have made sweeping changes to the state’s sports betting landscape, including increasing the legal betting age from 18 to 21, banning some college player proposition bets, and requiring operators to set a “minimum bet limit” of at least $1,000.
Kentucky, Montana, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Washington, D.C., and Wyoming allow legal sports betting and gambling at age 18, while all other legal sports betting states set the age at 21. Despite the 18-year-old minimum, many legal betting platforms in Kentucky require customers be 21 or over.
