What Ticket Wins Super Bowl Contest

in Trading Cards & Memorabilia Forum
Good day,

While in Vegas this year in April, I made the following bets at New York New York:

Pats to win the AFC Championship $10
Pats to win The Super Bowl $10
Colts to win the AFC Championship $10
Colts to win the Super Bowl $10
Chargers to win the AFC Championship $10
Chargers to win the Super Bowl $10

Of course we won't talk about the other 8 tickets I have thrown away as worthless !!!!!!!

Obviously I don't have much respect for the NFC.

You also have to pick the team that my Winning ticket beat at each stage and if there is a tie (From Guess's), with all that said, in the Superbowl the closest to the final score total and the two teams !!!!!! Complicated enough for you all !!!!!! Amazing what I can do after 5 hours of imbibing !!!!!

If at any stage all three of my teams (Edited to say: All three of my teams can't lose, I will be represented), lose than the closest at that time is the Winner !!!!! The contest is for the first person to guess which combo I will win with and everything else listed above. I have a nice lot of PSA Graded 80's Baseball stuff for the Winner with a couple of Football thrown in as well.

Hint: This is almost a Math test !!!!!!!

So the challenge is on !!!

    OK, my guess.

    None of the tickets win, the NFL takes it.

    Lee,
    Yes but those were the tickets I bet before the season, and just a note I bet on about 8 medium and long shots as well and didn't get a hit, just the favorites.
