Greatest investment of all-time; betting on the Tampa Bay Rays to win the World Series. The Rays had 250 to 1 odds in spring training, so one would get $250 for every $ gambled. Now the Rays are a mere 4 wins away from winning the Fall Classic.
Dave Marger of St. Petersburg was smart enough to take on those odds, and if the Rays win he will receive $25,000 for a $100 bet!
Maybe the Rays weren't a sure fire way to win 25 grand, finishing in dead last in 2007 and almost every year before that. The Rays have never even finished a season over .500, let alone make the playoffs, let alone make the World Series.
Still, next season I'm putting my money on the Washington Nationals.
