The 10 Stupidest Bets Ever Made

    We all think that fortune favors us – how would casinos stay in business otherwise? In this feature, we’ll spotlight ten people who made some incredibly dumb, dangerous or just embarrassing wagers and paid the price for it. 

    Don't Forget to Like Our Facebook Page. It's the Greatest Facebook Page on the Internet!

    Emmet Bentley, 2012

    Here’s another particularly dumb tattoo bet, this one courtesy of our good friend Shaq. In 2012, Shaquille O’Neal announced over the air that he would give $1,000 to the first person who would get a tattoo of Charles Barkley smooching referee Dick Bavetta during the 2007 NBA All-Star weekend. A bartender in Santa Barbara named Emmet Bentley jumped at the chance, getting inked with the ridiculous kiss. Even funnier, when Shaq paid him off he bet him another grand that he wouldn’t get a Mount Rushmore-styled tattoo of O’Neal and his cohorts on Inside the NBA. Needless to say, he took that one too.

Seed had to golf under 100 each round.
His opponent picked the hottest day of the year to have him do it, and Seed had two rounds over 100, but he managed to finish the day with four under and won a cool six figures.
If he had to golf under 100 each round, yet had two rounds over 100, how did he win. I am certain the writer meant he had to AVERAGE under 100, but that isn't what was written.

Get real.

Stephen Baldwin also swore that if a black man was elected President, that he would move out of the United States. The racist is also a liar.
