Boring game, AMEN, agreed but a total of $$$132.5 Million for a hold % of10.1 will be remembered as a big win for producing a record wagering handle in Nevada according to figures just released by the Nevada Gaming Board.

And all that money resulted in what Wynn Las Vegas executive director Johnny Avello called "a very good day" in an interview with the Associated Press.
Most of the money in Vegas was on the Denver Broncos, with money pouring in on theCarolina Panthers from the get go and remaining heavy on Carolina for the two weeks leading up to the game.

Getting a low-scoring defensive battle didn't hurt things either.
“A defensive battle was something we were rooting for and fortunately, that's exactly what it was,” Jay Kornegay of the Westgate Las Vegas told the AP.
Late money came in on the Broncos according to Kornegay, and Vegas would've preferred the Panthers to win but not cover. But all in all it was another big win for Vegas.
