CBS New York reports on a whole bunch of proposition bets released by Bovada, an online sportsbook.
DonDiego finds some of them remarkable, . . . remarkable in the sense that the outcome can be decided by one person.
LikE:
__What will Bruno Mars be wearing on his head at the start of his halftime performance?
Fedora 2/3
No hat 2/1
Fur Hat 5/1
Tuque 8/1 [note i.]
AND:
__If Renee Fleming wears gloves when she starts singing the US National Anthem, what color will they be?
White 5/4
Black 3/2
Red 4/1
Any Other Color 3/1
What's to stop Bruno Mars from placing a sizable wager that he'll wear a Tuque or Ms. Fleming from betting that she'll don red gloves, . . . and cleaning Bovada's clock ? [note ii.]
Notes:
i. DonDiego had to look up the word "Tuque"; it means a close-fitting knitted hat often with a tassel or pompom.
ii. DonDiego checked, and the Bovada web-site [note iii.] does list these props, under "novelty props".
iii. ".lv" is the Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for Latvia not Las Vegas. The gambling site Bovada, formerly known as Bodog, moved to an .lv domain after the United States Department of Homeland Security confiscated its former domain, bodog.com, in 2012.
P.S. If anyone knows the guy who decides what color gatorade to pour on the coach, please contact DonDiego by private message.
