   I was there and in some casinos they have bets on who will hit the first home
run of the season, or how will the first point of the first NFL game played this
season be scored. Who will be first player on Dolphins to be injured. Dosnt
matter to vegas who wins or who loses if 10 people bet one thing and 1 person
the other the odds will be close to 10-1 in that bet at the end of the day.
Email the casinos and ask them to start a wager on it. I am sure they would inot
it.
