Wild outcome to this sales promotion... but there's a twist!

My wife works in special risk insurance. I’m pretty sure Window Direct purchased a special risk insurance policy that pays out if the event occurs, so Window Direct isn’t out the money. It’s pretty much how hole-in-one charity tournaments work.

There's a chain of furniture stores in eastern New England that sometimes runs a promotion saying if you buy furniture during a promotional period and then the Red Sox win the World Series later that year you get the furniture for free.IIRC they've had to pay off at least once in recent years.

IIRC they don't run the promotion every year...maybe just the years when they think the Sox won't win.
