Wednesday, March 19, 2025 at 8:00 PM

The average American is willing to bet $120 on March Madness, with young adults willing to gamble a bit more. Gen Zers are willing to part with $199, while millennials bet an average of $205. Boomers are only willing to gamble $38.70. The Talker Research poll of 2,000 American adults found that 14% base their winning brackets on hunches. 22% of Gen Zers rely on "vibes", and 10% of millennials make their choices based on whether or not they like the team mascot.
