Super Bowl day is perhaps the most important day in Las Vegas every single year. Season after season, people travel from all over the world toSin City to submit their wagers in an attempt to crack the prize of a lifetime.

This year isn’t the exception to that rule. Even despite the Covid-19 pandemic, millions of bettors have found a way to make a profit throughout the NFL season, and they will continue to do so during Super Bowl LV between the Kansas City Chiefs and Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

However, none of them will have as much money at stake as Houston Astros’ superfan Jim ā€˜Mattress Mack’, who once again stole all the headlines for his massive bets and flexing on the rest of us.

Mattress Mack Bets $3.46 Million On Tom Brady And The Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Apparently, the furniture store owner just placed a huge, $3.46 million bet on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers +3.5 at -127 odds, meaning he’ll cash in on $2.7 million if the Bucs win the game or lose by less than a field goal.

This isn’t the first time that this hilarious old man does this kind of thing, as he was well known for his massive bets during the World Series when his beloved Houston Astros shocked the world.

It’s pretty safe to say that Tom Brady is never the guy you want to bet against, even at 43 years old. This Super Bowl will be as close as it gets and the public seems to be 50/50 regarding who’ll take home the Vince Lombardi trophy.

That’s why we prefer to just grab a case of beer, some chicken wings, and enjoy this shootout between two of the greatest to ever do it, but that’s also because we don’t happen to have $3.46 million to lose tonight.
