Take a look at our timeline of Indiana's sports betting industry: Eric Holcomb said: “By modernizing our laws, this legislation will spur positive economic growth for our state and for an industry that employs over 11,000 Hoosiers.” It wasn’t until 2019 that the Indiana Legislature approved the bill, clearing the way for mobile and in-person wagering. The state’s sports betting legislation faced opposition on several fronts, including mobile sports wagering. The Supreme Court’s (SCOTUS) ruling to overturn PASPA - the federal ban on single-game wagering - was the last domino to fall for Indiana to legalize sports wagering.
