Setting aside any legal hurdles, would you be okay going to DWS or the Hump and seeing the scoreboard say:
#5) LSU [-3]
#2) Bama [62.5]
#5) LSU [-3]
#2) Bama [62.5]
Would you support MSU embracing betting?

Yes. As long as they keep it legal. I live 15 miles from a casino and it doesn't bother me. I'm not a gambler but they have benefits
I’d be very OK seeing it if I knew where the closest place was to bet the farm on the #2 team being a 3-point home underdog to the #5 team***
Otherwise, I don’t have a strong opinion on it one way or the other. Doesn’t offend me or anything, but I also don’t really see any benefit. It’s not like you’re ever going to be able to walk into a sportsbook at the Hump and place a bet, so it doesn’t seem to serve much of a purpose.
I don’t keep up with any of that stuff so I’m indifferent. Are we partnered with a sports book and bringing in $$$ because of it? Revenue toward NIL would be a plus
Supporting Mississippi State is our gamble of our lifetimes.
The "casinas" have spent ad $$$ with us but other than that not sure of any other income from gambling.

The state needs to open up online betting. I wouldn't mind it then but what's the use now? Is there anywhere close to MSU you could do anything with the info?
Last night’s basketball game was somewhat eye opening when people on the broadcast were shouting at a kid on the floor to jack up 3’s because they had money on it.
I realize Barstool is anything but conventional but it made me wonder where things could go with betting.

It would be easier to potentially embrace if Mississippi had online gambling. Only sports betting has to be in person at a casino.
