Governor Doug Ducey has signed a bill that allows sports betting to become legal in the state of Arizona Thursday.

During the event, Ducey also signed a new gambling compact agreement with the Tribal Nations which the governor and the tribes called "a historic agreement."

The Diamondbacks, Suns, Cardinals, and Coyotes will all have licenses to operate on-site sports betting at their arenas. So will the Phoenix Open and NASCAR. Sports betting will also be available at tribal casinos.

On Monday, both chambers of the Arizona Legislature passed bills that would legalize sports betting in Arizona.

“I don’t think we’re talking about in the $10’s of millions. We’re talking about in the $100’s of millions,” says State Representative Jeff Weninger (R) Chandler District 17.

Man, that right there is a slippery slope. They legalized gambling here and within a decade all there was was casinos.

And it is impossible to remove, because uncle nanny always needs the rake.
