Imagine betting 2M on the Dallas Cowboys.
It's actually clever when you consider the other part of it. He offered any customer who spent $3,000 in his store the week of the game a deal where their purchase would be free if the Cowboys won.

So he gets some increased sales, and uses the bet to pay for the free merchandise. He lost his bet, but now the customers have to pay for those sales.

Jim Mcingvale , owner of Furniture Gallery based in Houston with net worth of 300 million , otherwise known as Mattress Mack . He placed a $4.5 million wager on the Bengals to win Super Bowl. It officially set the record for the largest mobile wager in sports betting history.

As a result of the Astros claiming the 2022 World Series championship, Mack was awarded $75 million in total sports betting payouts, the highest total in sports betting history.

He’s a huge sports fan who played college football at North Texas. And this publicity brings him much business.

To recoup his $2 million, he only needed to make 667 sales at $3,000. If the average sale was $4,000 that is 500 sales.

I don't think anything Dak sleeps on will improve his ability to read defenses or stare down receivers.
I am sure he could sleep fine on a concrete floor knowing he is set for life, no matter now many TD's (a rarity now days) or INT's (in abundance now days) he throws. :laugh:
