ONE MORE THING ABOUT THE SUPER BOWL

So, supposedly, this motherfucker bet $1000 that the first score of the game would be NY getting a safety on NE. It paid out 50 to 1, thus a $51,000 payoff.

Here's my concern....a safety is extraordinarily rare. And a safety as the first score is even rarer. Then to pick which team would accomplish this feat is unbelievable.
I would have thought 500 to 1 would have been a better bet, but I'm the smuck who lost every fucking bet he made.
