And the Bears were so heavily favored that the only bets to make a good return on were to bet the Pats heads-up or bet that Refrigerator Perry would score an offensive touchdown. So I bet on the Pats to win (and they got clobbered) and The ‘Fridge scored TWO running touchdowns on the day.

And the Space Shuttle Challenger exploded two days later.
