There have been a ton of strange bets over the years. Each season, I bet people in Chicago that the Detroit Lions will finish with a better record than the Bears. As you surely are aware, I've lost that bet all 5 times I've made it. This season I collectively lost two six packs and a beer. Not too shabby, but I still hate losing. Sometimes losing can be much worse than a sixer though.
- Every year, the mayors of each city participating in the Super Bowl wager a collection of local goods adding up to thousands of dollars. (No one wins)
- Evil Knievel bet his doctor $10k that he would out live the doc.(He lost)
- Cleopatra once drank a glass of wine containing two pearls to win a bet with Mark Antony that she couldn't drink $500k worth of wine in one sitting. (She won)
- Tiger Woods bet $100 million that his wife wouldn't find out he was bangin' chicks all around the country. (Debatable. That's what he keeps in the same jars we collect pennies.)
And then there is this bet. I'm not sure if they both win or what, but it's pretty funny that it was blasted all over the internet. As of now the link is still active...http://seattle.craigslist.org/see/m4m/2153826372.html
