I've just seen the headline "New Jersey becomes first US state to take legal Oscars bets"

...you weren't able to before?

Over here you can bet on literally anything you want

You want to bet on who'll be the next Pope? You can do that

You want to bet on KFC running out of chicken after brexit? You can do that

I'm just really surprised that a country that has one of the biggest gambling destinations in the world doesn't let you bet on random stuff
