48 states raking in gambling proceeds

Just 25 years ago, you could only gamble legally in three states.

Now, Hawaii and Utah are the only states that don't allow it in some form.

There are:
  • 900 Casinos in 11 states
  • 406 Indian Casinos in 29 states
  • 29 Racetrack Casinos in 11 states
The Pew Research Center finds 71% of Americans approve of state lotteries. And 51% approve of legalized casino gambling. (Stateline.org)
