A woman in West Virginia bet $5 on a 15 leg NFL parlay last weekend. 14 sides and 1 total.

Hats off to her.

Of note, one of her sides was Dal. Who should have rested their players, and had no business completing that 4th down pass in the back of the end zone, in the final minutes of the game.

I think as gambling becomes more accessible, we'll see more of these stories. Much like lotto winnings. Rare but noteworthy.

20,000 to 1.

Usually this many legs includes ml wagers of college favorites. Not to mention the final week of the year with all that involves.

I'm still pretty stunned.


happy new year everyone..........and bol with your plays!!!!

Good story.

That reminds me of a parlay I played in baseball back in 2000 or 2001. I had a 12 team ML parlay with one game left on the ticket. It was Randy johnson pitching for Arizona and I had a 2 run lead in the top of the ninth. I was shocked that they took Johnson out for a reliever to close the game. I recall it was against Atlanta. You know the outcome.... Braves scored 3 in the top of the ninth and I lost.

It was a small 20 dollar par that would have paid over 12K.
Sickening........
