Gamble Of Life: Man Bets His House And Wife On An Arsenal Win
Tom Pound might be a loyal Liverpool fan – but we’re betting there’s a bit of him that hopes his beloved team DOESN’T win the Premier League.
The 27-year-old made a bet with his fiancee Kylie Brinkley and father-in-law Stephen to have the Liver Bird and ‘You’ll Never Walk Alone’ tattooed on his manhood if they take top place.
Tom made the bet after Liverpool beat Manchester United 1-0 in September, and is being forced to honour it.
Kylie, 25, said: “We won’t let him wriggle out of it. He’s got to go for the whole length.”
And Tom isn’t the first person forced to go through with an unfortunate wager after losing a bet…
It was never going to end well when Arsenal fan Henry Dhabasani staked his house on his team beating Manchester United in a bet with Manchester United fan Rashid Yiga.
While Rashid bet his new Toyota Premio and his wife on a United win – in a bet witnessed by tribal elders and put in writing in their town in Uganda – he was left laughing when former Arsenal striker Van Persie took the Red Devils into a 1-0 lead at Old Trafford in November.
Uganda’s Observer newspaper reported that Dhabasani, who has three wives and five children, fainted at the final whistle and was evicted from his two-room house the next day.
