Wedding Guests Received 49ers Super Bowl Sports Bets As Favors

Wedding guests may soon be able to cash in on 49ers Super Bowl sports bets received as favors from a September ceremony in Lake Tahoe.

Jessica and Matt Grime bet that the 49ers would win Super Bowl 58.

Tucked in each of their wedding guest’s napkins was their sports bet.

 

Jessica said favors are sometimes one of the first things to go or be forgotten.

She said, “Really, favors are kind of dying out and you don’t really have the reason to spend the money on them. So I felt like this was a great reason. It showed how much Matt and I loved the Niners, and it’s fun.”

The front of the favor a message reads, “You bet on us, so we placed a bet for you.”

The couple bought $2 bets for each of their 180 guests.

If the 49ers take the Vince Lombardi Trophy home, each winning ticket can be cashed in for just under $20.

Some guests were smart to grab extras left behind.

If the 49ers are Super Bowl champs, wedding guests from outside the state can mail in their winning ticket.
