Oregon’s Sports Betting Still On Track For New Season

Oregon’s plans to launch their mobile sports betting market in time for new season are coming along nicely and should be in place once it begins. Oregon was one of the states not included under PASPA thanks to the “grandfather clause.” Other states excluded from this ban were Nevada, Delaware and Montana.

Oregon Lottery spokesperson, Matthew Shelby, says: “It’s in the black market, offshore sports betting operations that people can access. The question that we’re looking at is should there be a regulated, state-run way for people to do that. If you were at an Oregon lottery retailer, potentially, you’d have the opportunity to bet on additional things. Who’s going to have the most yards in the first half, that type of thing.”
