One, a good friend of mine who will remain anonymous, who is a high, high roller.
Like just as the outside of probably Macau, there really aren't many people in the world that gamble larger than he does and is a mainstay right behind Celebrity Row at Knicks games and has been one of the guys traveling via private jet to all of the road games doing the whole thing.
Yesterday,
He took his family to the game with, again, the best seats you can get that aren't celebrity rows.
So whatever a handful of those tickets cost, he spent.
I think what he spent on the tickets, he bet on the Knicks minus two.
Can you imagine that?
Can you imagine?
I couldn't imagine.
Well, but I don't even, I'm not even saying, I mean, again, the guy's going to be, he's got, he has plenty, he does very, very well in life.
But my point is, I, you are a diehard Knicks fan.
You are in theory euphoric at the comeback.
And, you know, your family's celebrating, and then somewhere in your head, you're like, oh, my God.
Did this game cost the tickets plus the bet plus this plus that?
So there's one story.
I mean, that's a tough one.
It's one of the reasons I am a big, big believer in if I'm attending a sporting event, I'm only betting the money line of the team I'm pulling for.
Like if they're the favorite, I'm paying the juice and betting the money line.
And if they're the underdog, I'm getting the plus money and betting the money line because you don't want, like if you're rooting for a team and you're at a game and they're getting, say they're getting two and a half, no, three and a half, pardon me.
And they're down three with five seconds left with the ball.
