Land-based sports betting has been legal in the U.S. state of Mississippi since March 13, 2017 (official regulations approved June 21, 2018), when Governor Phil Bryant signed the Fantasy Contests Act, which included a provision to decriminalize sports betting. This means it is now possible to play college sports betting, MLB sports betting, and NBA sports betting in the state. In June 2024, Mississippi had a sports betting handle of 19.37 million U.S. dollars, down from roughly 27 million U.S. dollars the previous month.
