Legal Sports Betting Comes to Evansville

You can now bet on your favorite sports team right here in River City. The sports book opened this weekend inside the Tropicana Casino. I visited Saturday afternoon and ran into some WKDQ listeners that explained how it works. I bet on my beloved Colts to beat Tennessee Sunday afternoon. The line was +3 for the Colts which means because I chose the Colts to win I also got an extra three points tacked onto their score at the end of the game. The way Adam Vinatieri has been kicking, that may be important. So I bet a whole $10 on Indianapolis to win. It was pretty simple to bet. Now let's see if the Colts come through! I also bet on the Kentucky Wildcats to beat Florida and got an extra 9 points. Florida actually won by 8 so even though my Cats lost, I got to add 9 points to their amount and came out a winner.
