When it comes to football, there’s never a lack of interesting bets.
But some stand out more than others in their peculiarity.
For example: What goes through the mind of someone who’s betting just $1 on a three-leg parlay? We might never know the answer to that, but we know what’s going into the bettor’s wallet: nearly $1,100.
More on that wager, other notable parlays, unique wins and major wagers — winners and losers alike — as we recap NFL Week 13 and college football Week 14 betting.
Rocket Booster
Among the options DraftKings Sportsbook offers its customer is an odds booster, increasing the potential payout on a bet. On Sunday, one bettor put that to very good use on a $1, three-leg parlay:
Davante Adams to score the first touchdown in the Jets-Seahawks gameJonathan Taylor to score the first TD in the Colts-Patriots gameMike Evans to score the first TD in the Buccaneers-Panthers game

That’s some very nice ROI.
Parlay Partay
You want to know how you’re living, right? Or at least on a one-off lucky streak?
Hitting a 13-team parlay is a sure sign.
A Caesars Sports customer did that, putting together a baker’s dozen of point-spread winners in college football Week 14 odds. All 13 teams covered the spread, turning a $5 bet into $22,874.89.
At FanDuel Sportsbook, a customer had a $40 three-leg parlay tied to the Bears-Lions game on Thanksgiving:
