Bernhard, Ph.D.; Anthony Cabot, Ph.D.; Kahlil Philander, Ph.D.; and Mark Lipparelli, M.B.A.  \n(Brett L.L. Abarbanel, Ph.D., academic editor; Katherine Jackson, project manager; Shekinah Hoffman, managing editor)  \nExecutive Summary  \nStakeholders and commentators have long debated the merits and appropriateness of Las Vegas as a host city for a professional sports franchise. These debates have engaged each of the four major U.S. sports, including, perhaps most prominently, the National Football League (NFL), which continues to express concerns about gambling and Las Vegas. This report examines the empirical evidence that confirms or refutes these concerns. Fortunately, many common (and understandable) questions have recently been addressed in the rapidly-emerging scientific literature on gambling impacts. Taken together, the analyses in this report constitute the first comprehensive, objective, and (where possible) scientifically-based assessment of theoft-articulated issues that arise in this context.  \nThese kinds of concerns fall under multiple academic categories, and because of this, we have assembled a multi-disciplinary team with approximately 100 years of collective experience in examining these very kinds of gambling-related and Las Vegas-related issues. This team has been retained by the University of Nevada, Las Vegas for ongoing analyses and advising, and this report is part of that engagement. This report has been subjected to a peer review (including experts both inside and outside ofacademe), overseen by an editor ofan academic journal with relevant expertise in this field. In the interests of accessibility, and to provide a comprehensive evaluation of the issues, we have organized the major questions and answers into the following academic categories:  \nBusiness: The sports gambling business is the industry that most concerns stakeholders in the NFL and other leagues. This report starts by summarizing the current state of this industry – both legal and illegal – providing a thorough review of this massive, global marketplace.  \nLaw and Regulation: Integrity tends to be the most prominent issue for those concerned about locating a professional sports team in Las Vegas. After all, the city boasts a sizable legal sports gambling market, and the fear is that this activity could lead to game/match fixing and related issues. This report examines each of these potential threats to the integrity of professional sports, and then analyzes the approaches that Nevada, the federal government, and the gaming industry deploy to address these threats. We conclude (as do many other analysts) that due to the rigor of Nevada’s regulatory practices, in many ways the state’s approach would actually provide sports leagues with their best opportunity to protect themselves when it comes to the allimportant issue of integrity. Given current estimates that 80% of global sports wagers take place in illegal, unregulated, or under-regulated markets, professional sports leagues would benefit from a shift that moves more of these wagers into legal, regulated, and more frequently checked settings.  \nEconomics: The tools of economists are uniquely capable of assessing costs, risks, and benefits, and this report provides a ground-breaking and thorough economic evaluation of commonly perceived risks associated with locating a team in Las Vegas. Overall, the available evidence suggests that a team’s (re-)location to the city is likely to have no effect on the  \nprevalence of game fixing. While the convenience of access to place legal sports wagers in Las Vegas provides some small changes in incentives, most game-fixing-related wagers are likely to continue to happen in the underground economy. There is little incentive for criminals to use Las Vegas sports books to place wagers, as Nevada has a strong regulatory and enforce","cbCaieNFebmrZeOq","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaieNFebmrZeOq","pdf",1679014,119,"English","# Executive Summary\n## Business\n## Law and Regulation\n## Economics\n## Psychology and Public Health\n## Sociology","[{\"question\":\"What is the report’s purpose regarding Las Vegas as a host city for professional sports?\",\"answer\":\"It evaluates empirical evidence that confirms or refutes concerns—particularly those raised by stakeholders in the NFL—about gambling-related impacts in Las Vegas.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the report assess risks to the integrity of professional sports?\",\"answer\":\"It reviews threats like game/match fixing and analyzes approaches used by Nevada, the federal government, and the gaming industry, concluding that Nevada’s regulatory practices offer strong protection for leagues.\"},{\"question\":\"According to the economics section, does relocating a team to Las Vegas increase game fixing?\",\"answer\":\"The report finds the available evidence suggests team (re-)location is likely to have no effect on the prevalence of game fixing, noting that most fixing-related wagers continue in underground markets.\"}]","Professional Team Sports in Las Vegas - What the Research Says | PDF",1791923869,42]
