00:00Yeah, Max bets conversation, something that could be a big story in 2025 as we move forward.
00:08All right, the numbers are in from betting on the Olympics and lo and behold, here we
00:13go again.
00:14People are doing same game parlays at the Olympics.
00:16I mean, tell me this isn't true, Pat, tell me it ain't true.
00:19No, apparently it was.
00:21So FanDuel released their report on Paris Olympics betting and it was up five times
00:27the amount as Tokyo in 2021.
00:32That's pretty significant, I would think, but I think that's kind of an overall trend
00:36in general.
00:37I mean, how much more did I watch?
00:39How much more did you watch, Craig, of the Olympics this year than the one four years,
00:43three years ago?
00:44However, the timeline works out now.
00:47It was a lot.
00:48You know, I watched a lot of Olympics this year and I didn't in 2021.
00:51So it'll be kind of it kind of goes hand in hand with that.
00:54To your point, the parlays were up a huge amount.
00:57They said it was specifically around basketball, especially, which isn't a big surprise with
01:02how fun it was to watch that Olympic team and Steph Curry finished that gold medal game.
01:06So I'm not surprised and we'll see how much more grows in the next Olympics, especially
01:14with it being in the U.S.
