DraftKings apologizes for offering 9/11 "Never Forget" sports bet

• The sportsbook posted the betting option Sunday night and offered +651 odds if three New York teams — the Yankees, Mets and Jets — would win their games Monday, Forbes reports. The odds mean a $100 wager would have netted $651.

What they're saying: "We sincerely apologize for the featured parlay that was shared briefly in commemoration of 9/11," the company said in a statement to Axios.

• "We respect the significance of this day for our country and especially for the families of those who were directly affected," the statement continued.
