New Jersey’s nascent sports-betting industry reported $24 million in gross revenue in September, more than double the previous month, a surge boosted by the opening of the NFL football season.
New Jersey’s sports-betting operations, which launched in June after the U.S. Supreme Court declared a federal ban on sports betting unconstitutional, already account for 8.5 percent of the state’s total gaming revenue, according to monthly statistics released Friday by the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement.
