Two years after legal sports betting launched in North Carolina, the conversation around its impact continues to evolve.

We’re proud to see TSG NC’s own @JasonSaine featured in @wralnews ’s documentary “The Gamble,” offering insight shaped by his time in the North Carolina House and his role in advancing the legislation. His perspective underscores the importance of bipartisan collaboration in delivering meaningful policy outcomes, an approach we bring to our work every day on behalf of clients like the Sports Betting Alliance.

TSG NC was proud to have played a key role as a legislator in bringing legal sports betting to North Carolina and now, speaking on behalf of the Sports Betting Alliance, thrilled by the latest numbers from the NC State Lottery Commission.

Since legalization, the industry has generated $262 million in tax revenue for our state, blowing past all forecasts, with $116.6 million collected in fiscal year 2025 alone (nearly double projections). From NFL Sundays and college football rivalries to March Madness excitement, regulated betting is delivering real economic wins while giving North Carolinians safe, transparent options.

This success shows what happens when we get policy right: strong revenue for public priorities, consumer protections, and a level playing field. Great work by everyone who helped make it happen!
