[i]Mission completed. Jared Isaacman just became the first person to ever place a bet from outer space to Las Vegas. As part of the mission, Inspiration4 and BetMGM will be each donating $25,000 to St. Jude![/i]
[i]I was honored to be the one to place the bet for him. His instructions were relayed to me on Thursday afternoon by his brother Michael, who had communicated with Jared from space earlier that day. After Jared's brother Michael called me from Inspiration4 takeoff area at the Kennedy Space Center, I went to the cage at MGM Grand and as a proxy bettor, was able to take out $8,000. The Proxy bettor documentation was signed prior to launch. I then placed the following bets, as Jared instructed Michael to tell me: His two bets: [list][*]$4,000 on the over of 40.5 on Thursday Night's New York Giants-Washington Football Team game. [*]$4,000 on the Philadelphia Eagles to win the Super Bowl at 66/1.[/list] Now, I'll wait around to see if the two teams can score more than 40 points. If so, I'll meet Jared in Orlando for a Splashdown event in a couple of days with his winnings ($7,636.35 in total) — which will be donated to St. Judes. We'll add $268,000 if the Eagles win the Super Bowl.[/i]
