Salem, Ore. — Oregonians placed more than 456,000 bets through Oregon Lottery’s DraftKings Sportsbook during Sunday’s big game — setting a new record for any single sports event. Wagers for the Super Bowl totaled $8.26 million, with the average wager coming in at $18.11.
“This Super Bowl generated more than $2.8 million in revenue for Oregon, the most for a single sports event since we launched sports betting,” said Kerry Hemphill, Oregon Lottery sports betting products manager. “Prop bets performed strong, and the Eagles’ overwhelming win was unexpected.”
Players had more than 1,100 “prop bets” to choose from such as who would be named MVP, which team would make the first touchdown, and more. Below are results of some of the prop bets:
- On the coin toss, 9,375 bets were placed and 5,120 won the wager for the Chiefs to win the toss.
- Of 8,979 bets, 981 correctly picked the Gatorade color as yellow.
The player with the biggest win of the day was a customer from Eugene who placed a $25 bet on a 13 leg multi-sport parlay, ending up on the Eagles -6.5 points. That wager resulted in a $49,370 win.
Oregon saw close to a 9% increase in the number of unique, active players who placed a wager on the gaming platform from 2024. Last year, Oregon players placed 424,812 bets valued at $7.7 million. Oregon Lottery debuted online sports betting in October 2019.
