Super Bowl 52 Sets Record with $158.58M Bet at Nevada Sportsbooks

A record total of $158.58 million was bet in the Las Vegas' sportsbooks on Super Bowl LII between the Philadelphia Eagles and New England Patriots, according to David Purdum of ESPN.com, breaking last year's previous high by nearly $20 million.

According to that report, the books won just $1.1 million on the Eagles win, the smallest total since 2011, though "the books have come out ahead in 26 of the 28 Super Bowls since the Nevada Gaming Control began tracking the action in the NFL's title game in 1991."
