Spelling Bee Gambling
 
There are strict rules in every country banning children from gambling, but no one ever said that people could not gamble on children. The latest trend in online casinos and internet gambling websites has become betting on the National Spelling Bee which will take place in Washington D.C. The past couple of years has brought a lot more attention to the National Spelling Bee since it has received so much coverage on the very popular channel, ESPN. It was only a matter of time before the even that was airing on the sports channel became a sport itself to gamble on at any online casino that is participating. Betting on the outcome of this national competition surely makes the competition more exciting than it’s ever been before.

This year’s contest will hold a total of two hundred and ninety three contestants that have all qualified to compete in this year’s national spelling bee. The kids started by taking a written test all of these kids that qualified will then be narrowed down to a small group of 50 finalists. The ESPN coverage will rival any other sport that is covered by an online casino or internet gambling website. The online casino that is accepting most of these bets is a website called BetUS.com. They even have statistics on this website that do show a favorite to win the National Spelling Bee title, the odds are -130 for a boy to win and -110 for a girl to win with the favorite being Amale. The online casinos that are taking bets on this event are not just taking bets on the winners, they are also betting on things like if a player will vomit on stage, a parent will yell at a judge or if the winner will be wearing glasses.
