Will this revive AC?

Big news. Hopefully the state will be smart with the windfall. This could probably be up and running in time for this years football season. Perhaps all tax revenue should be used to solve the pension crisis?

Finally!
Pretending it did not exist was absurd. This is great news for NJ and people who want to wager on sports in NJ.

Like AC solved all the issues re seniors and education.


Like the parkway would be paid off in 1960.


Like the lottery solved all the issues it was marketed to solve.


NJ has a bottomless vortex which consumes taxpayer cash and profit promised by politicians.


Like pot will generate revenue and so on.

Don't think the revenue will be that much.

the money will be spent/borrowed against before it ever materializes and then much less will be collected than projections.

i just find it amazing that people think they live in a free country and yet the government can stop businesses from offering betting on sports or anything.

Monmouth park should be taking bets within a few weeks. They already have a sports bet lounge.

People can laugh, but I'll be going more.

Not even to gamble a lot per se.

If you're not a big sports fan and haven't been to a Sportsbook in Las Vegas, you just don't know what the energy is like during the NCAA tournament and football sundays.

It will keep a lot of people in AC instead of flying out to Vegas.

People aren't aware of how many people drive all the way down to Delaware from NYC just to place parlay bets.
