i have seen this happen in vegas but i'm not going to name who it was for fear of retribution.

at potawatomi in milwaukee i have seen lou piniella a bunch of times playing the horses, we don't have sports betting here so he couldn't get into trouble that way...

How does that have to do with anything though? Hes just a new york fan obviously...Dont think that 100K would have hurt him had he lost.

Saw Tom Tolbert at the MGM sportsbook during March Madness two years ago. Don't know if he actually placed any bets, though. But why else would he be there?

Mayweather a degenerate NBA/NFL bettor.

The numbers are huge. Go into Caesars, the Mirage, MGM, or any other numbers of hotels and you can always find a celeb or sports figure wagering on a game, a horse, or a table. I have seen dozens of them,and have not seen a winner out of the lot. Milwaukee Mike, why would you fear retribution form a sports figure gambling in Vegas? It happens all the time. If anything, they are the ones who have to watchout for retribution.

[hillardoh]

did you see pete rose bet on ball games?
