From the scandal of the Dixie Classic in the early 60’s to the “senate shenanigans” of the lottery vote in 2006, North Carolina’s history with gambling has been contentious. The state has had an anti-gambling law on the books since 1764. So, how on earth did we get to a point where mobile sports betting is legal? In episode one, Brian Murphy from WRAL News and Tim Donnelly from 99.9 The Fan recount NC’s sordid history on gambling.
