Sportsbooks in Pennsylvania took in more than $100 million in bets in August, according to a report by Darren Rovell of the actionnetwork.com.

In its first full month of online wagering, Pennsylvania reported $109 million in sports wagering, up 84 percent in July when the take was $59.3 million.

Leading the way was the popular online wagering site FanDuel, which pulled in $37.8 million in bets. An astounding 93.2 percent of that total came from online/mobile betting.

The rest of the betting handle was generated at its sportsbook at the Valley Forge Casino.

Sugarhouse, whose sportsbook operations are based in the state, took $30.4 million in bets, with online accounting for 82.4 percent of their handle.

Outside Nevada, New Jersey is still the biggest sports betting state, with $293.6 million bet on sports in the state in August.

Keep in mind those betting totals came before the National Football League kicked off its 100^th season in September. Betting on NFL games, which see more action than any other sport, could possibly double that number.
