But because of the pandemic that is causing fiscal problems for states, sports betting is getting more attention than usual. Mostly, because of how the sports betting industry can help states with their fiscal woes. This brings about a good change in legislation, where more and more states are now opening their doors to gambling and sports wagering. Tennessee, for instance, is one state that is getting ready for its launch.

The tentative date for launching sports betting in Tennessee is November 1. So far, the state is currently reviewing the applications of would-be operators in the state. Those who want to bet sports online will be waiting quite a while since these applications need to be approved. The said approvals will be announced by October 5.
