Since fantasy sports didn¡¯t start until 1980 and wouldn¡¯t become mainstream until more than a decade later, fans had limited opportunities to engage in sports, besides rooting for their favorite teams. Betting was one way.

Legendary New York Jets quarterback Joe Namath even had to give up his stake in a nightclub that was frequented by bookies.
