Actually-----me and two other guys where you could bet on football. It was passed on to third year law students. Used the school mimeograph machine as Xerox copiers didn't exist in those days. We did the Big 8, top 5-6 National games and the football Cardinals and Chiefs and another big NFL game. We had to set our own point spreads as they didn't come out in the paper until Thursday and people started betting on Tuesday Had a great year. Won over $2000. Cost min of $2 to bet. It was fun.
