Gambling News - June 1, 2009 - Written by Glen
The Florida Gators have been in the news for a lot more then just their recent championships that they have won over the last couple of years, and that is not necessarily a good thing. Since Urban Meyer came to the University of Florida in the year 2005, there has been 24 players arrested for charges and that has brought a ton of unwanted attention to the school. There has also been several players that got arrested shortly after leaving the football program, which has to lead to questions about how and if Urban Meyer is teaching these kids how to be good people, and not just good ball players.
With all of the attention on the Florida Gators football team being arrested, sportsbooks have started to take notice and have released a few different bets that are actually a little humorous as long as you are not a Florida Gator fan. BetUS is one of the best online sportsbooks for entertainment betting and they have released a bet on how many Florida Gator football players will be arrested before 2011. The over and under for this bet is at 2 and the odds for over are -130 and the odds for the under are at -110. The history over the last 4 years say that there is a pretty good chance that a few Florida Gator football players will find some way to get themselves put in the big house.
Another bet that they have on the Florida Gators getting arrested is whether the next Florida Football player that gets arrested will be arrested for a felony or a Misdemeanor. They have the odds at -180 for a misdemeanor and they have them at +140 for a felony. The chances are that when these kids get arrested for something, it is probably going to be a misdemeanor for something stupid like getting in a fight at a local bar.
Entertainment sports betting gives people a chance to get away from the ordinary by letting them bet on things like tv shows, politics, and even people getting arrested. These betting odds on the Florida Gators getting arrested are just an example of the odds that online sportsbooks think of to keep their customers entertained. Urban Meyer has been under a lot of heat from Gator Nation and if these arrest do not turn arround, there is only going to be more unwanted press in Gainesville.
