You can bet on darn everything sporting in Las Vegas. Isn't this kind of like a sporting event- 51 girls competing and I mean really competing and sometimes cheating to win the crown? Oh well. Maybe the gambling halls think the judges will be the ones on the take instead of the contestants.
BTW, Miss Wisconsin is from Kenosha. too bad Miss Nevada is not on the list. Miss Nevada is Alana Lee of Las Vegas, whose father is a powerful state senator in Nevada, John Lee. (I wonder if Harry Reid got her the title...nah, I don't think so, but..)
Nah, Alana Lee is a very smart woman and probably earned most everything she got.
Anyways, good luck to Miss Wisconsin.
