Transcript:
Janis: I won our Super Bowl bet! AGAIN!!
Janis: Let's see - this year I want you to...
Janis: Cut down that diseased plum tree!
Arlo: Next year, forget our bet! We're going to Vegas!
And when she gets to work later this morning she will be the pool queen as well. For someone who doesn’t care for the game she sure manages to clean clocks on all the people in her life that do care.
Ken, from my experience, women will surprise you that way, eh? Women are sometimes called the weaker sex, Maybe… But, I AM willing to consider that they are the smarter sex……I’ve been outflanked a lot, man….
I have a friend who is a dealer at a casino, (an all purpose term, dice game operator, roulette, etc.) He says that if you’re good, you can almost always win a couple hundred dollars……..It’s kinda set up that way….He says that is when they should quit…..But they’ve tasted success, and they never do quit and end up losing thousands…..

I will say, that was the most unusual super bowl I have ever seen!

There’s little doubt what Arlo wanted to collect if he won.
Tyge about 8 years ago
Arlo, given your apparent lack of gambling skill, I’d forego Vegas.
BJIllistrated Premium Member about 8 years ago
TYGE – I agree. Just go for the shows and the food. Then go home. Most of us don’t want to be there for more than a few days.

How about, take care of the plum tree now during dormant season so you can get fruit off it this year?

You know you’ve been married a very long time when a bet has gardening chores as the stakes.

@ KENTHECOFFINDWELLER My experience is any football pool that adds point spreads reduces to a mere random lottery. It’s demonstrable.
JohnHarry Premium Member about 8 years ago
Maybe not on Arlo’s side.
Daeder about 8 years ago
Yeah, but this year the person who picked the losing team actually won.

I knew Janis was a Pats fan…
