Hundreds of people lined up Thursday for a chance to shop at the city’s “first free grocery store” – launched by Polymarket as it and other prediction betting platforms face increased scrutiny from state regulators.
The West Village shop — an apparent nod to Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s government-run grocery store pitch — drew more than 400 New Yorkers who lined up hours ahead of the 2 p.m. opening, eager to fill blue tote bags with no-cost produce, non-perishables and toiletries.
