Nevada casinos won nearly $6.9 million on this year's Super Bowl as bettors wagered $82.7 million on the game. The Nevada Gaming Control Board said the win was $179,000 more than sports books won last year, on $1.21 million more in bets. "We thought the Super Bowl was a great measuring stick of the economy and we think the economy is just a little better than what it was last year," Jay Kornegay, executive director of the race and sports book at the Las Vegas Hilton, said.
