The New York State Gaming Commission (NYSGC) announced its official Super Bowl LIX wagering figures Thursday. With future bets in the mix, the state handled more than $154.9 million ($130.3 million excluding futures), with Gross Gaming Revenue (GGR) at more than $47.4 million ($41.3 million without futures).

With nine legal mobile sports betting apps in the state, FanDuel topped them all with more than $56.78 million in handle ($22.30+ in GGR). DraftKings was second with a more than $40.47 million handle ($10.5 million in GGR) and BetMGM rounded out the top three with $12.17 million in handle ($4.29M in GGR).

At the four retail sportsbooks upstate, all four combined for just over $1.2 million in handle and lost $44,127 in GGR. In total, New York books won a net $47.4 million from $155 million in Super Bowl bets.

The Empire State was third ($130.3M) among the top four states that have reported with the most money wagered (excluding future bets) on the Philadelphia Eagles' impressive 40-22 victory over the defending two-time champion Kansas City Chiefs Sunday.

The others: neighbor New Jersey ($168.7M) topped the list, with Nevada ($151.6M) second and neighbor Pennsylvania ($101.5M, largest ever) fourth.

Keystone State bettors rejoice

On the eve of the Super Bowl winning parade up Broad Street Friday in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania released its official numbers for Sunday's Big Game. The state generated its largest ever handle, exceeding $101.5 million.

Keystone State online and retail sportsbooks paid out $6.5 million more than they handled. It was just the second time since the state's first legal wagering Super Bowl in 2020 that books suffered a game loss. The first was in Super Bowl LVIII as the Chiefs upended the San Francisco 49ers, 31-20.

Since 2020, both Chiefs/Eagles Super Bowl matchups have generated the most handle:

2023: $84.3 million
2025: $101.54 million

Friday's parade kicks off at 11 a.m. ET.
