Anyway, this makes me wonder if celebrities like Tom Holland who likes to attend sporting events for his own enjoyment affects the popularity of the sport. In the same context, does celebrities like Drake who also likes to gamble for his own enjoyment influences his fans to do the same? Have you ever checked out a sport or betted on a team because of your favorite celebrity?
It will put the spotlight on the sport, and some fans may eventually try it because we fans like to do what our favorite celebrities are doing, but for serious gamblers, I don't think celebrities will influence them; they know what interests them, and they bet on sports they understand and can analyze.
Sports bettors are putting their own money at risk, and they prefer to play based on their own preferences.
