Why not just have fun with it and give the guy the tix? I'm sure he would understand if you can't get front row - 50 yd line seats, but White has the connections and resources to make it happen and he wouldn't even have to lift a finger. Instead he just lookslike a bitch.

He knew the dude had nothing to lose in the bet before he made it so that's not an excuse to back out. If you made the bet, you should stick to it.

It wasn't as much a bet as it was a metaphorical way to call the guy crazy. For it to be a bet both sides would have to wager something.

I think it's pretty cool of him to buy the guy tix to a game for the tweet.

It wasn't a bet. It was a guarantee, one which claimed he would back up with a prize if he was wrong.

And the guy is a Falcons fan. Why be a dick to your own fans? Just have fun with it, I guarantee there are Falcon tix available.

Roddy White probably can't afford Falcons season tickets. Willing to bet he's already in Jamarcus Russell-type debt like most of today's NFL players are.

I heard the guy was a bears fan. That's why he said he would buy him tix to a bears game.

No, he's a Falcons fan.

He said "go bears" when talking about the Mercer Bears basketball team. White is just a moron and thought he was a Chicago fan.

He also never claimed what venue he would be buying him tix for. Maybe he was talking about some shit-ass high school team.

What did the guy wager in this bet?

It wasn't a bet.

White just opened his mouth (or his fingers I guess) and guaranteed a Duke win. And he was so confident in his prediction that he said he would give the guy season tix if he was wrong.

It wasn't a bet. It was a moron who let his mouth write a check that his ass couldn't cash.

He should've just ponied up. 50 yard line tickets for a crummy Falcons team is like $60 a pop. So $500 White would have to shell out (not assuming discounts or whatever for being their star WR - or at least one of them). The GOOD publicity he would've gotten for doing this and HUGE fan support (translates to contracts, etc) would've FAR outweighed the negative publicity he is getting for being a moron.

Well, being a fan of the team with Sherman on it, you sure know all well and good about open ones mouth.

I agree.

It would have been funny if he would have paid up and got suspended over the ordeal for gambling.

It wasn't gambling. The NFL would not have cared.
