In a remarkable surge, online sports gambling in North Carolina reached unprecedented levels in September, with gamblers placing bets that shattered previous records. The state's online sports betting platforms reported a significant increase in wagering activity, reflecting a growing enthusiasm for sports betting among residents. This uptick in gambling not only highlights the popularity of sports events but also underscores the expanding market for online betting in North Carolina.
