I thought there was a fascinating spike in odds on July 3rd so I naturally had to investigate why they would shoot up like that.

I believe I narrowed it down to an interview Kelce did with Jason Sudekis on a skit show around that time

Just wanted to share a fascinating insight into how people pick odds on these sites

There’s also a pool for whether Mike Tyson will bite off Logan Paul’s ear, so they go wild there

    Nah, I’m in the U.S. and also have minimal interest in betting. I have more interest in how people bet because it’s so interesting

      Same for me. I pretty much have no interest in betting whatsoever. Betting is just something that’s never really crossed my mind, as something to even consider being interested in.
