I was in San Diego playing lacrosse with the Czech National team back in 2023.
We went to a sports bar for dinner and they had this game replaying on NFL Network on a TV right next to our table.
I bet a kid from the Czech Republic $50 that the Vikings were gonna come back and win.
He gladly took it. Free winner. Watching him experience this in real time was unbelievable. He couldn’t believe it. Ended up telling him after the game was over that it was a replay and didn’t take his money.
Also had to remind him that it was July and the NFL wasn’t on. It was also a Wednesday. I love the Europeans.
