    I'm taking the over 8.5 games. Of course if there is interest, we could do something more interesting.

    I am doing a contest on a cigar forum where you choose 4 teams you think will be over, and four teams you think will be under, the Vegas over/under prior to the first regular season game. Winner take all.

    This is the 1st season in the last 5 years I didn't bet the over, and I had won 5 years straight, but too much changes to bet now. Although I hope, hell I pray we do way over that.

    That is a tough bet to win. I think you'll see very few who get all 8 correct.

    That's true, but with 32 teams, who knows. The winner might get 3 right:smiley1: But he will win 50 or so Cuban cigars

    I have never played roulette.
    I've stopped, and thought about it, but I always end up walking away. I don't know why

    I was having a dram of Lagavulin paired with an Arturo Fuente when my dad called. Mentioned I was having a cigar and a bit of whisky. He asked whichbcigar and how much it cost. After responding he told me he used to buy boxes of 50 pre-Castro Cuban cigars for $7.

    Cuban cigars have gone up 3X to 20X since COVID. COVID hit at the same time a price increase was hitting due to hurricane crop damage. Cuba soon found out that the world would pay whatever they asked.
