    What's The Worst Beat You Ever Had??
    Mine I remember vividly, like the first time I got into a car accident, or the first time I hit the showers in gym class (I went to a very diverse high school).

    Bowl season. Christmas Eve, 2014. The Bahamas Bowl, Western Kentucky vs. Central Michigan.

    I had Western Kentucky -2 LARGE

    WKU were up 42-14 at the half and built a 49-14 lead by the middle of the 3rd quarter and at that point I counted it as a win and was hardly watching. Was messing with the crock pot, scrolling Backpage, you know, the norm.

    Then Central Michigan comes roaring back. TD after TD in the 2nd half. Scoring 34 unanswered points.

    It all culminated in this play, with :01 left from their own 25.



    The worst part is had Central Michigan kicked the extra point it goes to OT and I have a shot to win. Instead, they went for 2, didn't get it and I lost by 1.

          Back in the Culpepper days I loaded up on the Vikings over 48. Vikings were up 38-6 at halftime. Final score 41-6.

              College Hoops. New Mexico vs. Nevada 2 years ago. New Mexico was up 25 with 11 minutes left. New Mexico was up 11 with 58 seconds left. New Mexico lost in overtime. Haven't bet a New Mexico or Nevada game since.

                not the worst beat but worst emotional roller coaster i've been on and memorable for me

                Steelers -5 vs chargers in 2008

                Steelers down 8-10 and drive to get a FG in last min and go up 11-10 but not enough to cover

                Last play for San Deigo with 5 secs left

                Polomalu picks up a lateral fumble and returns for a TD to put Steelers up 17-10

                the scoreboard shows it like that

                then during post game, with nothing from the refs... they just say. the score was actually 11-10 with no explanation

                            I can't remember the particulars (or maybe I don't want to) but about 10 years ago I had a a college football game for Northwestern to cover, at about -6. They were up a few, not enough to cover. With less than a minute left, their opponent threw an INT and the NW player ran it back a few yards to around midfield... and dropped to a knee. The offense then took an knee to end the game. The announcers were crowing about what a smart decision that was by the defender, but any other player from any other team (except for perhaps Ivy League teams) would have finished out the INT and ran it back.

                              This one is too easy

                              Patriots vs Falcons super bowl.

                              Had Falcons +3 for a HUGE amount.

                                        I was at the bash for that one. Was already an epic trip with the run I had in craps and in poker.... That one was a low blow as I had about 800 on falcons, but nevertheless was still a great trip!

                                          Patriots/Falcons Super Bowl is an all-timer

                                          Hard to top that

                                          Especially because of all the money on both sides

                                                  Love hearing these

                                                  Everybody has at least 1 (probably more like Sammy said)

                                                  But 1 that stands out for whatever reason

                                                        I'm sure many who had Golden State will remember that game against Twolves other night.

                                                          One of the worst I had was 2 days ago, I had Wolfsburg +1.5 and they conceded in 91' and 94', probably a 200/1 event. The worst was when I had Under 2.5 and there were 3 goals past 90'.

                                                                  i probably had worse beats but that was a huge bet for me
