    Weirdest sports you have bet on?
    Weirdest for me was betting on a grasshopper fight last time I was in china. Placed a $20 RMB, which was like $3 bucks US.

          Luge: Did not know what it was until just a day ago, found some good bets.

          Belarus hockey: No comments, did not do well.

          Just bet ski jumping as well. Well I don't think many others have ever bet these things.

                          WWE wrestling if that counts.

                          Other than that, college hockey is about as obscure as I get each year.

                          I did win a $50 bet on the Arnold Schwarzenegger governor election when Davis was recalled. Given the candidates in that election, I'd call that one a weird sport winner.

                              jai alai.

                              Years ago I remember seeing that Vegas had odds out as to who shot Mr. Burns on the Simpsons.

                                one time I had a guy who was getting smoked and was about to lose, one more point and he would have been done.

                                So he forfeits and the bet became no action. I saved 450 bucks

                                    Won a few hundred bucks a few years ago on a bet that Scott Peterson would be found guilty of murder.

                                      When we were very young we used to make the little kids from the remedial class fight each other with fukkin sticks.
                                      They would beat the hell out of each other until only one was left standing and the rest were left crying and rolling around in their own piss.
                                      I'm not proud of it, but I must say that we used to bet on these fights, with the winner usually winning like 20 Jolly Rancher candies or fukkin Clorets gum or Now and Laters or even Choco Bliss or some shit like that.

                                      This is very bad - like I said I'm not proud of it. Very sad what we did to these little fukkin slow brained motherfukkers. But I feel the need to tell the story here because it was a true WEIRD fukkin thing to bet on way back then, even when we were small little fukkin bastards.

                                      Very ashamed and whatnot.

                                            When i was in college, we would bet on who would be the next person to walk in the door at our apartment.
                                            Also, we had a lighter that was going out. We passed it around and were betting how each other on how many flicks it would take to get it to light. That was fun.
