Abstract
Over time, the US sports gaming industry has progressed dramatically beyond what the US anti-gaming law drafters envisioned.

This discussion, therefore, intends to shed light on the US sports gaming legal framework, including analysis of the preeminent US laws that regulate the sports gaming industry and a brief review of various sports gaming businesses that fall within the US legal rubric.
