The Rise of the SP Bookie Part 1 – Sports Bizarre
Manage episode 415106856 series 3370472
At the beginning of the 20th century, Australia decided to do something against its nature, ban gambling.
The result was the rise of the SP Bookie, illegal bookmakers based in pubs, barber shops, pool halls and anywhere people wanted them.
The result was a cat-and-mouse game between the police and the bookies; if the cats weren’t interested in capturing the mice and were willing to take bribes.
Titus has three live shows coming up in May in Melbourne. You can get tickets here.
