Since New Jersey’s first sportsbooks opened in August 2018, residents of the Big Apple have been making the short trip across the Hudson by car, ferry, PATH subway, bus or shuttle (in short, anyway they can) in droves to place a legal sports bet. Some even just ride a bicycle halfway across the George Washington Bridge, log-on to legal New Jersey sportsbook using a geo-location service to recognize the bettor is within state lines and place their wagers accordingly.
