The rise of fantasy sports and online games is changing our culture as much as anything else these days:

  • More and more people are consuming televised sports from their computers than from their televisions.
  • Players can now live stream themselves while they play.
  • Streamers can upload footage of them playing any video game they want to share 24 hours a day.

All these things result from Fantasy Sports, the most significant and fastest-growing niche sports entertainment business in history. This industry is estimated to be worth more than $2 billion.

You’ve probably heard by now that a simple game like fantasy sports (aka “daily fantasy”) has become a multibillion-dollar industry. The average fan has played at least once, if not multiple times, in their lifetime. Millions of people across the globe have spent hundreds or even thousands of dollars to play in leagues or competitions over the last few years. Many have even gone so far as to hire a professional team manager to help them compete and win their leagues.

Many people are surprised that an industry that began with only a few sponsors and the help of a handful of internet chatrooms became the ballon-popping sensation it is today. It’s hard to imagine that fantasy sports didn’t start as a joke.

Playing fantasy sports and online kingxo66 games with friends has become a global pastime recently, but fantasy sports started as nothing more than a joke. It all began with an idea conceived over several beers by two friends from Massachusetts.

Somewhere in the early 1990s, two guys (one from Pennsylvania and one from Massachusetts) were hanging out at a bar. They were discussing the fact that they were bored with the sport of baseball. The sport of baseball was so exciting back then. So many generations had played before them that they wanted to take advantage of its popularity to start something new and exciting — something that would capture more people’s attention.
