 So, today was the grand final of australian rules football. And a rule is, if the game ends a draw, they play the grand final again the week after.

And it just so happened that after a very intense game of 2 and a half hours, the game ended a draw for only the second time ever (There has been 151 grand finals).

Pretty stupid rule since the people that paid for a ticket (100,026 of them, at near $1000 each) paid that much and didnt even get to see a team win, and now have to go back into the run to get a ticket, which is very hard to do.

Also for the players, who work their asses off all game thinking "this is the last time ill have to do this for 6 months" now are going to be very saw or even injured.

 Man, the bookies would be laughing all the way to the bank

Tens of millions of dollars in generous bets from overly patriotic fans and close to no dividends to be paid..

EDIT:Nvm I'm a sportsbet noob, people get 60% of their bet back?
