This situation is largely due to a United States Supreme Court decision. Robert J.Soper explains that in May, the highest court ruled that the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act (PAPSA) of 1992, was unconstitutional. After the decision, any state could potentially offer sports betting to its inhabitants and so far, eight states are either actively allowing sports betting, or have legalized it and are hammering out the final details. Those states include Delaware, New Jersey, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Mississippi, Rhode Island, Arkansas and Nevada.
