What is funniest/odd thing you find on a Sportsbook Site..?

Great topic! I'll come back to this one with what I see in my travels today. I should have taken some notes.

I think the GA link should be on every gambling related site. It helps the gambler identify when they have a problem.

I took it as what is the funniest wager you saw... If that is the case I would hae to say Sportsbook.com's "State of the Union" speech props... Another reason why I like them best next to Pinnacle.. It was sweet they had Oer/Unders on how many times Bush would use certain words..

Al Quada 3.5 it went WAAY OVER
Democracy 5.5 it went under
Terrorism/Terriorist/Terror 19.5 it went OVER
God 2.5 it went Under
Evil 2.5 it went Under
Freedom 5.5 it went Under

This is out of memory but it's close enough

I agree with Bill, every gambling site should have a GA warning/link.

The one that stands out to me is Cascade's quote of "get paid 7 days a week, No questions".

Apparently there is a problem, because they have this at the top of there page

US Players: Current payment methods have been limited due to external pressures exherted by the US government. This will unfortunately create an increased payment time frame. At the current time, payments will be made in 15 to 25 day time frames. Cascade has alaways maintained a stellar reputation for payments, and will continue to pay players in the most expedited ways possible. Current payment options have been limited to check transfers and some person to person transfers. We apprecaite your patience with us during this changing landscape of the online gaming business. Once again, we appreciate your patience and understanding.
