We're definitely just trading anecdotes here, but I assume you've never spent any time inside the local TAB in a rural Australian town; It's not exactly filled to the brim with young professional up-and-comers.
My experience in Australia doesn't generalise perfectly to the US, of course. I wonder how much it does at all. That lack of certainty doesn't stop me from worrying what things would look like if it translates well across our societies.
- sithadmin 9y agoSports gambling in the US is definitely quite different from what one encounters in the Commonwealths, but it also isn't that the sports books are filled with 'young professional up-and-comers'. It's a range of men, generally between 25-65, that have an interest in sports that borders on unhealthy, but take great pride in making 'smart' and generally conservative bets.
