World Doesn’t End – Bookie Refunds Doomsday Bets
Well, we are all still here. And to celebrate the Mayan’s getting their apocalypse prediction wrong, online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au has refunded all losing doomsday bets.
All losing bets have been refunded, including those who backed yes the world would end on December 21st at $501. Those
who bet on how the world would end ranging from global super storm ($34), alien invasion ($501) and zombie apocalypse
($1001), have also had their bets refunded.
“We are pretty happy the Mayan’s got it wrong and think it’s only fair the punters get their money back as an early
Christmas present!” said sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.
