Uh, time is ticking here in Missouri.
00:07
They got legalized sports betting, you know, this idea that sports betting would come to
00:11
Missouri after the legalization in November, you know, with some talk, Oh, maybe we can
00:15
get this going in December.
00:16
Well, that's not going to happen in January is going to happen either.
00:19
So what's the update here?
00:21
Yeah.
00:22
So Craig, I promise there will be a time we don't have to talk about Missouri, but I mean,
00:26
it feels like we've been talking about it since we started doing this almost three years
00:30
ago and they've been trying to legalize it.
00:33
And I think we're coming to the end.
00:35
As you know, as you just mentioned, it did pass, uh, during the election last month by
00:40
a very, very slim margin.
00:42
So there's been thoughts that it would, there would be a recount and that maybe it doesn't
00:47
pass actually.
00:49
But thankfully for, for the industry, it has been certified and has officially, uh, been
00:55
passed, uh, at the ballot.
00:57
So this is a long, again, long journey.
00:59
You and I have been talking about it for three years.
01:01
First one, it was Missouri, Kansas race and Kansas got it done and launched in 2022.
01:06
Um, and it was the old border war and we thought, Oh geez, there's no way Missouri is going
01:10
to let them launch it without them launching it.
01:13
Uh, but sure enough, here we are almost three years later, uh, actually three years later.
01:17
Nope, not it's 2024.
01:19
Geez, jumping ahead of myself there, Craig.
01:21
Um, but almost three years later and, and still nothing now to your point, once it was
01:27
passed in November, a lot of people were very excited, Oh man, we can get it off the ground
01:31
right away.
01:32
Of course, that's not how it works.
01:33
The regulatory agencies still have a lot of work to do to kind of get the licensing in
01:37
order the applications ready.
01:39
Uh, the, the thought right now is, as we're hearing is the, uh, Missouri gaming commission
01:44
will get at emergency application rules out in January.
01:48
So the applications can be submitted and get that ball rolling.
01:51
Um, and it sounds like they want to get off the ground by late spring, early summer.
01:56
Of course, that's not a great time to launch because there's not a whole lot going on,
02:00
um, for sports books, but Hey, it's better than, you know, having to wait until 2026.
