SUPERBOWL LVI will be the SINGLE BETTING EVENT IN HISTORY, 'FanDuel CEO SAYS'.

Chandrayee Roy Choudhury, Canada: Super Bowl LVI, will be a “banner weekend” for sports gambling companies, according to FanDuel ($PDYPY) CEO Amy Howe.

With additional states legalizing mobile sports betting over the last year, coupled with a growing interest from the general public, FanDuel’s volume during the NFL playoffs has quadrupled year-over-year.

“This Super Bowl is going to be the single biggest sports betting event in history,” Howe said on Yahoo Finance Live (video above). “So that just gives you a sense of the magnitude of what we’re coming into. ... It just makes for a much more engaging experience right? It’s not just about the outcome of the game but you have skin in the game on who’s going to be the MVP and who’s going to score that first touchdown.”
