At least bet what you can afford.
That would almost be like getting into the stock market right now
Reminds me of all the money on Mike Tyson to beat Buster Douglas. hehe
Too bad he didn’t have the ability to send out Vito and Tony to sever a powerline so the main lights in the stadium go dark.

Bet $35K to win $1000? I wonder whose money it was.
Chronic gamblers are nuts. They are worse than drug addicts. Drug addicts usually off themselves in a few years. It’s sad, but at least the agony for the family is over. But gamblers go on for decades, ruining the lives about them. I’ve known several. I’d sooner try to be friends with a scorpion.
Betting 10 or 20 bucks won’t break anyone.
It’s not Zero or a Million!!
What a DUMB bet this one was though!
That’s a touchdown and a fumble/recovery on kickoff. Far from impossible.
Just wow.
Im too lazy to open up the article. 35k is a LOT to most folks..to some not so much
This is why losing money in stocks doesn’t hurt as much as gambling on sports - you see the Falcons special-teams guys flapping their arms like chickens and not covering the ball on that on-side kick and you know exactly who to blame. You see the value of your stock go down because some anonymous MBAs screwed up just as much as the Falcons did, and who knows who’s responsible?
Come on, this is the Falcons we’re talking here, no lead is ever safe with them.
THIS...... makes you think its all rigged
Look at the last three seconds of the Hawks against the Patriots when on the goal line the Patriots QB couldn’t bust through the Hawks defense; if they’d have scored, they would have won.
Went to the casino and won $2500 on craps. Took the Small, Tall and all lines and hit them.
Even I have more sense then that!!!
Wonder if they meant to bet $350 and were so drunk they thought the extra zeros were just double vision.
Who does this? Always bet small amounts on long odds. That’s the only way to beat the vig in sports betting.
SUCKER!..........................
There’s a sucker born every minute....PT Barnum?
Never bet on the Falcons.....
They will always snatch defeat from the jaws of victory!
I didn’t realize there was in-game betting.
La Tech came back from what was it, 17 down to win?
Navy came back from 21 down?
Now a week or two ago I was listening to sports talk - the caller complained that bets on the Pitt game were cancelled because the coaches had agreed to shorten the game. I think the opponent was Austin Peay.
At half-time I told my friend who is a die hard Cowboys fan that the Falcons would choke and Dallas would win by 1.
That kind of screams money laundering to me.
