On Monday, we looked at the Super Bowl 54 odds and saw that the Detroit Lions were among the biggest longshots for 2019. Unsurprisingly, I saw many Lions fans react to the news by claiming they will put a small amount of money on the team in the hopes to win a large amount—in some cases 100 times what they decided to bet.
Considering that sports gambling is set to be legal for more than a handful of states this year, there’s a pretty good chance a bigger portion of Lions fans will wager on the team going forward—even if it’s not yet legal in Michigan.
