    What team's futures bet ticket qualifies as a gag gift for someone?
    If a friend was having their 50th birthday party and you were told that only gag gifts were part of the theme of the party,what team's futures bet ticket would qualify as being a gag gift?

    The sportsbooks aren't as eager any more to make even super dogs that much of a longshot in futures betting like they used to.They got burnt a few times the past few years.It's great having expansion teams coming in to the league for the first year where you get 2500-1 odds and maybe more.Ya never know what could happen with this swine flu dealie???Stuff like that is the great equalizer where maybe every team is on equal footing.

    Anyone ever have a gag gift party in their honor or attended one for someone else?What were some of the best gag gifts you saw?I went to one and someone gave the guy a fleshlight.Flashlight with a snatch.Some of the older women were a little annoyed by it.hehe!

    1st thing that comes to mind is a Future Bet for the Detroit Lions @ 100-1 to win the Super Bowl.

    Give him a $1 ticket for the Orioles to win the AL East (23 Games Back) or the Nationals to win the NL East (22 Games Back) that has to be at least 1000-1.

    Bet Joe Wurzelbacher to be the next President of the United States in 2012 @ 100-1.

    Bet Kenya @ 400-1 to win the 2011 Cricket World Cup.

    Sportsbetting offers a prop bet of Most Regular Season Home Runs:
    Print out a fake ticket with opening days date, and have Mark Reynolds listed at 2000-1 for 50.00

      Actually a really clever idea. Going to consider this for a friend next year.

          Anything as far away and unrealistic as possible. Love the idea about Kenya for the 2011 Cricket Championship.

              Another solid gag gift for the sports fan would be a pair of tickets to a Jai Laia scrimmage somewhere.
