Every year myself and a Sox buddy of mine take on 2 of my Cub fan buddies in a series of bets between the 2 teams. This is similar to what Mac, Jurko and Harry do. This year we made 10 bets and the losers have to buy 4 Bears game tix, provide food and drinks for tailgaiting and must wear the gear of the winning team to the game. Here are the bets that we agreed on...

 

1. Nomar's AVG Over/Under .310

2. Frank's HR's Over/Under 23

3. Most Wins

4. Cross-town Classic

5. Garland vs. Dempster (5th Starter wins)

6. PK vs. D Lee (Triple Crown)

7. Rowand vs. Patterson (Triple Crown)

8. Walker vs. Iguchi (Triple Crown)

9. Most Wins Buehrle/Garcia vs. Zambrano/Prior

10. Total Errors 3B/SS

 

If this keeps up, my Cub fan friends will be sporting Pink Sox shirts and anything else I can come up with.

I have to give it to you, that was a pretty creative bet.

Thanks.

 

Anyone else do anything like this? I'd be curious to see what some others do.

Nice, I love Sox -Cubs bets. It always makes for some good entertainment

Thanks.

I've had a steady $5 bet with a friend of mine for total wins. We started doing that bet in 1989, we were in 6th grade and we've done it ever since.
