My sweat equity.

Law Smith

3:02

Two, like last week, that was huge. And then winning this game was or three weeks ago. I guess we won. And then this time, it's been a long time since we've done well,

2

Speaker 2

3:12

do we figure out the guy on the Redskins whose first name or last name is sweat what his first name is? Marcus or

3:18

Montez.

3:18

That's way

3:20

better than Keith Sweat.

Law Smith

3:21

I no one knows. But our DC fans, we don't have enough.

3:26

But I think it's funny. He's gonna

Law Smith

3:27

do but he's kind of an obscure. I know. Okay, I'll throw Montez in there.

3

Speaker 3

3:32

But I agree with you these younger dudes. They just like players. Well, I hate LeBron. So I've been through with all these guys. They just follow the brand everywhere. I'm like, yeah, our generation. I just I hated players. These guys are like these kids. I go to little kids houses. They have seven jerseys. Like there's a bunch of Wyoming kids I had cheese hats and Allen jerseys. They're like, they just root for everybody. I was like what are you a girl? I know girls that did that with whatever. Whichever dude, they were dating they that's what their team was like, What are y'all right? You can't do that.

Law Smith

4:05

Do you want a recording? Do we do need a record and you wanna slap that out? I'm sure you know we can do

4:10

we can. I don't care? You can leave it whatever. I don't care. It's the truth. Girl

Law Smith

4:15

if anybody's jumping in right now we cut out all the inbox you're doing before the stuff. Oh, yeah,

4:19

I'll get those out.

Law Smith

4:23

Yeah, that's how that's how Colorado rolls these days right now. But let me ask you this. Like, why do you hate LeBron? You're the only person I've ever heard actually say that out loud.

3

Speaker 3

4:34

Because I was Kobe loves Jordan guy. So I shouldn't even be I mean growing up here. Everybody was Jordan. The nuggets stunk. And we're all Yeah, Denver is very loyal to like Broncos ABS Rockies kinda but no one liked the nugget. So I was Jordan guy. And then I liked Kobe and then I lived in Vegas at the time and a lot of people in my circle out there were Ohio people so they love LeBron. So then I just made me because we'd have these Kobe LeBron debates and then I just hated LeBron. And I hate Ohio State football for that, but I just never liked the brawn and it's just more fun to root against him. Like, I hate arguing with people as like, it's okay if you like him, but I don't like I don't like him. Because it's I don't want to root for every team. I like, you know, now I then then Coby retired that I wrote for Steph, just because I just don't want LeBron to win. So I just, I mean, I'm sure he's a nice guy does all that stuff, but for me, it's more fun to root against him.

2

Speaker 2

5:30

Sounds like you like a smooth player. Yeah, bronze kind of clunky.

3

Speaker 3

5:34

You know, I was I was a point guard my whole life and I I just his game was never my game. I guess I've never liked centers. I've never thought of it like that. But that's a good point. I liked guys. And that's why I like Duke growing up because I always had a small white point card. Yeah, that made me believe toski

Law Smith

5:52

Yeah, by that logic, you love the Patriots for the last 20 years. The way it will give you Scotty Miller of the Bucs too. That's new Tom Brady's new white jet

6:03

wide receivers. Great. Well, he loves betting on him. Oh, yeah.

Law Smith

6:07

So tell us tell us where you're at with gambling if anybody doesn't know brandstory that's listening.

6:12

Did you say his actual full name

Law Smith

6:14

right oh blur? Yeah, well, they'll see it in the description. Okay, yeah,

6:17

that's how this goes. Yeah.

Law Smith

6:18

31 podcasts is still rocking. You've got the book free roll. Any other stuff I'm missing promote.

3

Speaker 3

6:25

Nah, that's about it doing the pie. I do my podcast Craigslist chaos every week, which is everybody's favorite. What's that when I spent a lot of time down in Florida Actually, I just get on Craigslist and go to different towns and anybody dumb enough to put their phone number on Craigslist. I call them and try to get jobs or buy shit or join the Illuminati are crazy. And it's a I love doing it because it's just it's so much easier. You guys know how it is to get guests and get people to commit so then I just created the show, because there's always idiots on Craigslist. So whenever I'm feeling like lazy or if I get some inspiration I just come down here the studio and Craigslist never lets me down. There's always a bunch of idiots that want to talk to me about anything and everything. A lot of lonely people on Craigslist. You guys know that?

Law Smith

7:12

Yeah, I've seen this. I've seen men seeking women few times on they're just curious. I'm not looking. Yeah. And then seeking man.

7:22

Am I called you? You hung up? I was like, Oh, wait, what?

Law Smith

7:26

Speaking of which, I love Denver. Where you're what part of Denver you and

7:30

I'm right downtown.

Law Smith

7:31

Yeah. Oh, I love me some cheesman Park. That's where all the gay dudes fucking Yeah.

7:36

It's called cheesman Park.

7:39

Yeah,

Law Smith

7:41

my best friend from college is from Denver. And he used his parents house for across the street from Jason Park. And we'd see dude literally coming out of the loop which is literally coming. Oh, not that. I don't see you him. But like, like we wait for explaining the joke. Well, we thought like, Oh, cool. Yeah, sure. There's a bunch of gay guys in the park doing it. And this is before Grindr. Well, you forget that was like like an old school thing everywhere. Like gays had to meet him. Yeah, that was fine. Cuz he was still had to be so closeted about it. That that's gone by the wayside. No one's talking about that. Look, this is what the show this show is breaking things like that. What is the deal? But like, we literally were like, No way dude, you're just fucking hype being hyperbolic. And then literally as we're driving by two dudes are like, coming out.

3

Speaker 3

8:33

Yeah, yeah, that's a call to call the King soopers over there, clean the Queen soopers because that's where all the gays go to get their groceries. So it's still there. Oh, man.

Law Smith

8:43

Well look, double income. No kids. I want to be a resident in that neighborhood for sure. Yeah, they'll spruce it up. They'll gentrify that shit.

8:50

Oh, yeah. the belle of the ball.

3

Speaker 3

8:52

Because the Lincoln's gone way up. It's a beautiful neighborhood obviously, sort of waves.

Law Smith

8:56

So for the uninitiated of your backstory, you've got a an insane sports gambling background. And are you what are you doing now? gambling wise. I thought you kind of left that. Yep.

3

Speaker 3

9:09

You know what I quit for a long time and then doing this pandemic I got back into betten just on DraftKings. So now now I'm betting every day

Law Smith

9:22

what's what's good what's your what's a tip without giving away the whole shebang?

3

Speaker 3

9:28

Oh, I don't what I do is futures I really which sucks because I'm rooting heavily against you guys this week. But

Law Smith

9:36

that's okay.

3

Speaker 3

9:36

I think the money if you want to make a make good money gambling you should. You should look at the futures because DraftKings will let you parlay the futures. So I have everything I like to parlay. You know, as soon as the Super Bowl is over, I'll start parlay and stuff with next year's Super Bowl. So if you don't mind waiting it out. There's a lot of money to be made. So like I have a lot of money invested right now. I need to. I need Gonzaga. My biggest pet is Gonzaga, I think it's always the best college basketball team. But you can still get it like plus three and a half to one. So I've been doing a lot of stuff like that. And now I have a I have a bunch of futures. Well, it's it's not as fun as old gambling because I tend to just play the favorites. But I have a bunch of stuff tied to like Gonzaga to Lakers chiefs. This week, I've been tying a bunch of stuff to LeBron MVP, and Melo Rookie of the Year. So just a different strategy. It's more of a long term. And I, my friends, I've done really good on it. Like I did, I won 17,000, the last week of the season on divisional bets. So if you have the patience, you know, like right now you can bet the divisions and in basketball, it's just a long term. So if you took like, if you bet every division winner, and then you tied to Gonzaga, and then you tie it to like, let's say the Dodgers, you know, you're you could make a $20 bet and pay, like, let's say 8000. And then if you get to that Dodgers, then they'll let you cash out for like, 3000 you could let it ride. So that's what I do. I do a little different instead of just a daily game, because betting every day is so hard because these line makers are so good. So they kind of sleep on the future. So like right now, I think the Braves really as much as I just said a Hitler. He and I have so much money tied into the Lakers and LeBron. I think that's a way to make some money. So it's a long, boring example. But no, no, that's how I'm doing it.

Law Smith

11:29

That's the minutia, man. That's what we want to hear. Yeah, I'd

2

Speaker 2

11:32

never be able to wait that long. Mine's three minutes before kickoff. fanduel Let's do it. Let's whip it together. Maybe I'll win $9

Law Smith

11:41

Well, that seems to be the way I mean, I just take a Sam rosti and and casino is just like, it's very boring to be a good gambler. Like it's not the guys that are good at it. It's they're not like going nuts most of the time, right? I mean, you've you've really been in the scene like in the higher roller kind of these guys. Yeah, what thrown down you're one thing when I

3

Speaker 3

12:04

worked. So I worked for like some of the biggest cameras in the world. And that was the thing they taught. It's a you know, it's a marathon, not a sprint. And to be good at gambling, you need to win like 58 to 60% over the year. You know, no one comes in and just, it's like, I mean, come in and get lucky like the lottery. But if you're actually gambling every day, you know, 95% of pride. 98% of people lose, just because like you said, you don't if you don't have the patience. I tried to get my neighbor on it every day. He's like, I can't wait till the end of the season and bet the Lakers I'm like you're a Lakers fan. You're gonna be rooting for the Lakers. Oh, yeah. Might as well bet it. And it's not as bad because like, so I have a ticket right? at one of my tickets. I bet $25 on a parlay. With Gonzaga, and the Lakers. And like eight other games, you could throw in a bunch of money lines, but you know that it's $25 ticket that pays 27,000. So yeah, it sucks to have to wait it out. But it's fun to wake up every morning and go, Oh, shit. If I can get past this Gonzaga. I'm at the Lakers for 27,000 and they're gonna probably be like $1 80 favorite. And then I can hedge back or I can make money. It's it's not as glamorous as winning like a big parlay that day. But to me, it's what I advise people to do is if you're going to make a 516 parlay, just throw, you know, throw the brawn on right now while he's plus six to one. You're $180 pilot, pay 1800. And then that'll at least save you from blowing that money. You can sweat it out to the end of the season or something. So it's a different strategy, but it's worked well for me.

Law Smith

13:41

So you do what they call anchoring. Right. Like you'll find the lead horse parlay around that or gathering. I can't remember what the term is. But

13:52

yeah, so exactly impressed to do that.

Law Smith

13:54

I listened to Bill Simmons and cousin Sal every every Monday morning. Yeah,

3

Speaker 3

13:59

yeah. So they So yeah, that's what I do. So now that I have so much on Gonzaga that I did, I watched nothing. I was like, okay, Baylor could be so then I picked up some Baylor I picked up some Michigan was still Gonzaga being the best, but you have to have a little bit of a bankroll. And then and then I bet individual games, you know, I bet 50 or 100 on a game, as I'm watching. And then I put like, 50 of that back in the bankroll to keep betting daily games then put 50 in the future. You know, it's, it's not that calculated, but that's kind of what I do if I if I win a couple games that I go in and bet some more futures because, you know, that's what's kept me to win 17,000 that weekend that that'll keep me afloat for a long time, even if I go on a bad stretch, but it's just the patient's like, I think the second the Superbowl loses, let's say Tampa Bay, Windsor, I'm in Tampa Bay is 11 to one next year. So if you don't mind betting it I'm already starting to get some some of that. And the chiefs are like five and a half. So I It's just it's better for me because then I just have money. I can wait. I can't lose that money.

Law Smith

15:07

Oh, yeah. And Tom Brady. I think whether win or lose, he'll probably come back. Coming back.

15:14

At least one year. Well, there's

Law Smith

15:15

an option of retirement out there. I mean, you could I know what could happen, but

3

Speaker 3

15:20

I mean, but I'd be shocked. I wish they put that they put that that up. I would bet for sure. It'll be bad. He said. 45

15:26

I heard that when he was like, 38 I don't play dumb 45 I was like, yeah, yeah. Okay. He's right on track.

Law Smith

15:32

I was about to say I wouldn't believe anybody saying anything like that except for him. Right. Cuz as like, we were saying, you know, on Sunday, he's kind of like got Asperger's for football. Like, he's like, that's the only thing I hear I've ever heard him talk about in any interview is like, you don't see him in commercials. Pippin anything right? You don't see him on like any late night shows or any of that he's not doing any of this stuff that a lot of

15:56

sugar mama he doesn't need any of that.

Law Smith

15:58

I know but he think he think ego get there or something or you know, you're hedging your bets in case I guess he probably sent a prenup. But you know, I'm saying he got

16:07

beat down by Bella tech for all those years. You know, just goes

Law Smith

16:10

I'm just this is what I am. This is all I am. This is what I focus on. I don't give a shit about anything else. And when he's like, when people were down in some of these games that I'm like that bears game was like, Oh, no. Remember when he forgot his fourth down ever? I was like, Oh, no the magic's gone. Remember, hold that whole thing and it just fucking that washed away. Because he just, he looks like a turning point. He's like kromagg de man like his eyebrow furrows like all the way down and he's like, we're gonna fucking win this and you're like, I believe him. I wanted to be a politician.

3

Speaker 3

16:43

Well, they changed the rules so much that you can't really hit the quarterback so he'll play till his arm strength is gone. And they've questions on strength but like that threw that throw you had read for halftime? Scotty Miller was incredible. And that's 48 yards on the money so I think like you said I think you'll play till he's 45 if he wants unless some some freak accident but he he doesn't take any hits or anything like

Law Smith

17:07

he and he has say in who they draft in who they get in free agency that's part of the deal. Yeah, so our draft pick Tristan wirfs I think is only given away one sack great. He started all 16 games that's right tackle but still awesome. Yeah, well, the

3

Speaker 3

17:21

thing is nowadays you don't get to pick when you retire. You just like Peyton didn't want to go he just stunk and like I don't think Brees wants to retire. He just he they make the decision for you. And Tom was good enough this year. They're not gonna make that decision, but I don't think breeze wants to go but that last the last three or four weeks. It's like you just got to go man, you're he's just done and we went through it out here with Payton's shit we loved Peyton. We had to watch him play till he was 80 but he just couldn't cut it anymore. So but Tom his last six seven weeks has been incredibly top three quarterback in the world seven

Law Smith

17:55

seven game winning streak. But I want to ask you, I'll give a little backstory. But we really wanted you to come on to teach us how we can sneak into the Super Bowl. Yeah. that'll probably be the title of the episode how to sneak in the Super Bowl by giving away the worst part. If anybody picked that up was like, Alright, we'll just put these guys faces on our

18:16

game. Well, they're definitely going to dry up but

Law Smith

18:19

idiot the way you and I met is so so wild. I think it's interesting. So I heard you I think on Bert crashers podcast, Bert cast, like 2013 The End of 2013 2014. The National Championship game between ahlborn and FSU. I'm sitting next to one of my best friends Brendon t Gleason that was still doing stand up at the time, I guess played in the Comedy Store for the Comedy Store team Basketball League. And I just told him I was like, have you heard this Brent Tobler, guys. He's got stories that are fucking amazing. He's like, yeah, I play I play in the league with him. So I see him like every week. And so I was like, oh, none of the shows. Okay. He quit. But he's not gonna listen to this because he doesn't like podcasts. But what he tells you No, but we can as I've talked about it that day, and then he's like, oh, brands coming up here. As we're waiting for the like kickoff, and you sat next to us in between us the whole game. And you and I were like, I told you I was like I heard your whole story. It's amazing. All that stuff. And you'll have to kind of retell some of the stories of what you snuck into. But I remember for three and a half quarters being very excited with you and almost being sad for for from Brendan, because ahlborn was kicking the shit out of him and then had the biggest fucking life picksix and in my life of just FSU coming back. And Kelvin Benjamin and his great cheekbones. Fucking score in that last touchdown. I was like you fucking is the most absurd Fourth quarter last. But I remember that being high. The fact that you could find a seat in the bleacher seats of the Rose Bowl and just squeeze your buns into, we stood up the whole time, but to be able to squeeze in and just not have a seat was funny to me. Yeah, that

3

Speaker 3

20:16

was the coolest part honestly, is because I snuck in and then sneaking in. That's half the battle then you're in but then you got to figure out where you're gonna watch the game from. So the fact that once I got in you guys, like we actually have one seat and just sit with you guys, which was awesome, because you were rooting for different teams. And it was just an incredible game. It was a it's one of the best sporting events I've ever been to. And the fact I snuck in made it so much better. Because I remember you guys saying I think I had to buy you guys some beers because you guys like we spent a lot of money on these tickets. And I was like, Yeah, I just cruise right in the back gate. But yeah, I'm sneaking in and something I got good at overtime. Well, I mean part of it. I mean, the first piece of advice I tell you guys is just go for it. it's it's a it's a harmless crime, there's really no risk people put asked me about Are you scared of getting in trouble. There's no real trouble. Like, I've been caught trying to sneak in and they'll just say, hey, you can't be here. You can't go here. And then just go the other side of stadium and try. steak. So it's never I've never felt like I mean, I got stopped sneakers last champs game in Phoenix. And I talked to the cops. And if you know how, if you just talk, you can talk your way out of anything. First of all, they don't what are they gonna do? They don't want it that's like overtime pay for the cops. It's just, it's just an easy day for them. They don't want to go and don't want to pay for work on that. But yeah, so I get more credit for it than I really deserve. Because it's not like robbing a bank or something where there's actually a risk. You just got to get that mindset of like, all they're going to do. It could be like a little embarrassing, but not even that because no one's really paying attention. So once you figure that out, it's just all going for it. Now the Super Bowl is the one thing I've never snuck into. I went to

Law Smith

22:04

i thought you know what, I thought you snuck into the Broncos. Seattle one.

3

Speaker 3

22:09

No, I had, I had a ticket for that. And I and it's funny, because I watched the whole thing I talked about doing it. And then last minute, I got a free ticket, which is another miracle story. But I watched the whole process of it in the Superbowl is harder, because there's different checkpoints. But again, you got to remember you're dealing with people, they don't really give a shit, it's a shit job to security. It's like a 1012 hour job. They're not gonna, you know, they're not going to. I mean, there's a couple that want to be a hero, but most of the time, you know, they're just gonna you can out talk them or just what I always do is if I get to a spot, and then let's say, you guys stop me and say, Okay, hold on, I got the wrong ticket, the phone tickets is the key, it helps so bad. Because in the old days, if I tried to sneak in, I don't have a ticket. There's no wiggle room on it. But with technology, you know, countless times now I sneak into Bronco games every week. It's the easiest thing in the world, because I just have someone send me a ticket out. And then when I get up to the thing, I'm like, Hey, here's my ticket. And half the time they'll like zap it. And then they don't have time to mess with you to hear your 20 minute story when they're trying to get people in pushing the side or whatever. So the fact on the phone it helps so much because then you do have a loophole say had bought this. And they say well, I don't know what to do. And what are you talking to my pay 30 $500 for this ticket I I was sent to me, here's the Ticketmaster thing, you know, and then again, you're dealing with somebody who's maybe making $15 an hour and has a responsibility to get people through so you can just kind of bullshit your way through that. But I didn't do the Super Bowl, but I think it's doable, or you guys both gonna try to do it.

Law Smith

23:54

I'm sweating just thinking about it. so badly not I'm so bad at doing stuff like this, but I couldn't work myself up to doing it.

3

Speaker 3

24:02

Well, here's the thing, it's a tough spot for you because you want to sometimes sneaking in like it takes a while and you don't want to miss your team playing the game. So I like to sneak into stuff I don't care about as much. So that's the one. If I could tell you one thing you don't if I could say one thing why you don't want to do it is you don't want to be still messing with that shit mid first quarter. And you hear people in there having fun. And let's say Tampa scores early and you're like

2

Speaker 2

24:31

yeah, we'll be in the back of a cop car will be the one guy we'll be the ones that get out. We hear the Bucs win the Super Bowl, and it's amazing and we're stuck. So how far are you from

24:41

the stadium?

Law Smith

24:42

I could literally I could get there within two miles of my place.

3

Speaker 3

24:46

Is that then you haven't? I would I would do is I would go for it early because they'll open up the stadium early early for the Superbowl right. I want to say like four hours or if you you know what time when I was in Phoenix I wanted to sneak this little got me in trouble. Probably but I wanted to sneak in the night before and then just try to sleep

Law Smith

25:04

and just ride it out level. That's the Saved by the Bell YouTube episode. Yeah.

3

Speaker 3

25:08

And that's how you go like viral nude actually, you'd be given a podcast and everything again all this is just good content I have to explain to my girlfriend a lot when I go for shit like this. She's like I'm just making content that will help me on on the podcast. I get a $200 ticket

25:24

you know who is this expanse

Law Smith

25:27

baby banging runaways on the road. That's just content. Okay. It's not cheating on you. I'm just this is a story.

3

Speaker 3

25:36

That content versus me sneaking into the stadiums and sneaking into a different argument so that back, but yeah, I think you know, again, and what I always tell people if you were the laminate, or the laminates kita were just sneak into a Super Bowl a little different. But for me to sneak into the basketball arena here. As long as they were laminate, you have to remember those people that work there. Every single day. It's a different laminate some nights it's hockey, some nights is basketball, some nights, it's reanna. Some nights, it's Counting Crows some nights, it's Disney on Ice. So they're just trained to see people have something hanging, that they're just in their mind. They're like, Oh, that person if you just go where you're supposed to go, and that was masked and stuff, I think you could do it. You know, I haven't snuck in anything during the pandemic. But I think it might be easier with that too,

26:24

because but there's a smaller crowd. There's much

26:29

more money

3

Speaker 3

26:29

here, people. What if I was I mean, if you want to, if you don't care, if you don't have a conscience, you just get a ticket on your phone. You go to the front. When they question you and you say I'm a health worker, I was given this ticket. I don't know. You just play dumb as shit said, because they're I think they're given like 7000 tickets to health workers. Yep, you'd have to be a real asshole. Not into the Super Bowl. who's working in hospitals these last 10 months be like, Hey, I don't know what I'm doing. I work at so and so hospital. I was sent this ticket you write up a fake email?

Law Smith

27:04

I got the fax.

3

Speaker 3

27:05

Yeah. That says thank you for your service. With that. You know, you could do that with the NFL were so happy. We can't thank you enough for what you've done. Here's a ticket and then you just sit there and go. This is a ticket I have this was sent to me. I don't know. I had been working for 10 months trying to save people's lives and trying to go to the Superbowl. Why are you yelling at me? If I was a ticket guy be like, Oh, yeah, my bad. Just go right.

Law Smith

27:28

I got vaccinated in January. That's the base. Yeah, I should, like have both of them done by a certain time. Now did you

27:36

know cuz you could play that card.

Law Smith

27:38

I sent that once that email came in, or that announcement came in, I just sent it to all my friends that, you know, in the in that sector over here, I was like, you know, nurse friends of mine. I was like, you should see if you can get in and then I'll often go back to me like, I haven't gotten the vaccine yet that but like, by the cutoff time. I don't know why it was like late. It was like, it has to be by January 20. You have to have both of them done. Oh, to go into the Super Bowl. Yeah. Okay, as the healthcare worker a lot. Ah, ha, I

28:09

see.

3

Speaker 3

28:10

Well, and I just realized this too. I know comedian going as snuck in that he snuck into a game with him. live on Facebook, a very funny comedian Mike Turner out of Phoenix really is going to the game. So if anything, I can have him on to ask him his phone if it's a ticket on his phone. But I could always have him he's a down ass dude. And he loves the story and content and he knows all about it. So if anything, I could have him get in and send it out to you and then

Law Smith

28:40

do that amazing. I can't I can't even think of anybody I know that's going that's what's crazy is like, because it's what 15 k nine, healthcare worker allotment of tickets. A lot of the hookups. I have, like, you know, local, corporate wise or whatever they didn't get they're not paying four times the amount that it's already expensive to get. Like, none of that shit Can't I have got no I got no juice on this game. So

3

Speaker 3

29:11

yeah, it's tough. I mean, super is always tough, but even then, especially in the hometown, and he you know, and I, as a bronco fan, I know. People when it came, they spent their life savings people were people realize it's I'm spending this money this time. And I always advise people do it, man. It's your team may never if you're like a dolphins fan or something, you may never get back the Super Bowl. At one time, you think oh, Marino beer every year, you never know. So, I mean, I'm glad I got to go to Super Bowl even though is the worst game of my life. And the prompt is right from the very first second.

Law Smith

29:45

But yes, I mean, marketing wise, you always you always purchase with your emotion. And so just like you're talking about with gambling, you definitely have that thing of like, you got to be slow. You got to be boring. That's why I kind of tell myself like, if you try to if you think you're gonna talk yourself into impulsively buying a nine grand ticket. You know, like, you're already defeated in my head. I'm

30:05

like you're talking yourself into impulsively doing some work. And

Law Smith

30:09

yeah, no, but I was in my head. Like, if I can make this work, you're like, No, no, this is dumb. You should try. I'll try to sneak in if we can get the ticket hook up for sure. Yes.

3

Speaker 3

30:21

Here's what happens. Your team wins the NFC Championship or AFC Championship, you're all drunk. And that's when people buy that ticket. Like, right? Yeah, I was looking at.

Law Smith

30:32

Yeah, my bankruptcy could

30:34

never gonna happen again.

30:37

Yeah, well, yeah,

Law Smith

30:39

I kind of wish speaking of futures bets, what's, what's this ticket site where you can buy it? You can basically buy? What's it?

30:48

I think it's prop swap or pro swap?

Law Smith

30:50

what's the what's the why is that the one where you can kind of hedge like you could pay? Let's say beginning of the playoffs, you could pay 1000 that the Bucks get there, you'll have a ticket like guaranteed or something like that.

31:02

Oh, I don't know about that. That's cool.

Law Smith

31:06

I think that's how I did that national championship. Honestly, it was like, You I Oh, that's crazy.

31:11

They got all these losers since hedging, often saying, right,

3

Speaker 3

31:15

yeah. Remember that? You don't i don't know if that's still around. But I do remember you saying that, which was

Law Smith

31:20

a cool idea. But it just kicked in my head, because we're talking probably, but it's like, it's one of those. Honestly, that's a fucking really smart sign.

2

Speaker 2

31:27

That's a weird math problem. Because it's like the good people, the good teams are going to have that many more people buying tickets contributing to that money. shitty teams aren't going to be able to because they still got to buy those tickets. Yeah, it'll be better than nine grand and then it depends on distance of the game from where the fan base is. So if it was Seattle, all the way to Tampa kind of thing, even though that

3

Speaker 3

31:49

might be more of a college football thing. Yeah. Could we get to Alabama bought a bunch of Rose Bowl tickets, and then they lost or I think

Law Smith

31:57

I can see that. You have to put in the fact that Alabama has won so much that the fans are like, man,

3

Speaker 3

32:01

yeah, yeah, like Ohio State, you just buy the big 12 you just assume every year gonna be there. With football. That's harder, because I'm sure you guys have started the season. We're hopeful that we can make a run but

Law Smith

32:12

you never know. We're like. We're like Woody Allen. Like, just like our teams are very good. Like we have such low self esteem. Like the Brady thing really? Well geeked it up. But everybody's talking me out of it.

2

Speaker 2

32:28

So the cheese thing kicked the shit out of us earlier this year where it was like, the first quarter was absurd,

Law Smith

32:34

right? Right.

32:35

I mean, Well,

3

Speaker 3

32:36

I'll tell you this. The best day of my life. Broncos were like 12 point underdogs in Green Bay. I mean, against Green Bay and everybody. I remember Ron Davis. After that, after losing three Super Bowls as a kid crying. I remember going to my buddy's Super Bowl party thing and everybody telling us that the Broncos can't win and we're gonna lose another Super Bowl and, and needless to say, best day of my life. So we were like carrying an ember that was not the best quarterback of all time. So

Law Smith

33:05

look, I'm still optimistic. And I've watched every game even when we're terrible now. So like, I'm a diehard Bucs fan, even though I know, I could probably spend my time doing other stuff more important, but but now I have an excuse because I have kids and they're into it a little bit. So I'm like, Yeah, they they love it too. Cuz dad gets excited the TV. Like, you gotta have some dumb things. You're into routing wise, as an adult, or a dumb hobby. Like, whatever. It's not dumb. it a little bit.

33:35

A little dumb. But it's not that though,

3

Speaker 3

33:37

right off the bat saying I explained my girlfriend the other day. And we have a great girlfriend. We rarely fight but she wanted to do something on Sunday night before the games. I said, Hey, do you want

Law Smith

33:47

everyone in the room? We have a great girlfriend.

3

Speaker 3

33:51

Leave me alone. When you hear the guy on redzone go seven hours of commercial free. That means seven hours Leave me alone. And the next day. We could do anything you want Monday to Saturday. But for these 20 weeks on Sundays. I'll ask you just let me have my Sundays. And I'll do it. We can pick apples and go to plays and I can do anything you want. But and she's great about it. She realized Okay, and then but she didn't realize how important last Sunday was. There's only two games. I was like I know this is like the most important Sunday. Yeah, and these games, no brunch today. We'll do brunch any other day. Next Sunday. There's nothing Oh, you're

Law Smith

34:27

on your mountain time. You can't get that brunch in for

3

Speaker 3

34:30

Yeah. Well, I said we can't do that this Sunday. All the brunch you want?

Law Smith

34:36

Well, following Sunday, not so much. Hey, we try to keep these about 33 minutes. So I want to make sure we ask the question that we didn't ask you the first time but we tried to if we have any repeat guests or we're asking them what advice would you give your 13 year old self?

34:52

Oh,

3

Speaker 3

34:54

could be anything? Well, it would be just you just there's nothing to be about. fraid of like, if I had a kid, I would say, here's my advice, don't get a DUI, don't get someone pregnant. And don't smoke cigarettes, anything else we can. And that cigarette thing is just something I hate. I've never smoked a cigarette. I think it's gross. But, I mean, it's just such generic advice at 13. I mean,

Law Smith

35:19

here's, here's, here's how it works. You get like a bill and Ted's phone booth to go back in time to go talk to yourself at 13. And you get to grab yourself by the collars, and just give some advice, and then you're gone.

3

Speaker 3

35:32

I would say, start trying to fuck chicks. Cuz I was late bloomer on that, like, 18, I would say quit shooting free throws, take theater classes, it's not gay. It's going to help you one day if you want to be a stand up comedian. Quit shooting three pointers learn piano or golf. I don't. Because my whole life I just I thought I was going to MBA. So I spent my whole childhood just playing basketball every single day. So I got nothing wrong with that. As good as you get for a 511 guy in Wyoming. But now, I don't know. Like, to be honest, in a weird way is another generic answers. Like, I played all that basketball. And then when I got to Vegas, I met those guys. And the reason I got that job gambling was because I was good at basketball. And then the reason I became a comedian is because gambling and the reason I got on Comedy Central is because my dad stole my money. I tried to kill my dad. So there's like all this stuff that traces back to

2

Speaker 2

36:30

Yeah, you need to go on YouTube and look up. This is not happening. Brad Tobler has got the best story out of all of them that I've seen. Yep. Trying to kill it that I was watching. I watched it yesterday. Yeah, I've seen it a bunch. And so proud of it. It's

Law Smith

36:43

so great. It's the you know, maybe how about this would be the advice, you go back and go, hey, maybe not so many free throws? And maybe we'll throw a little Spanish lessons in there.

36:54

You know, so yeah, any anything

Law Smith

36:58

in addition to what you're already doing? Because Yeah, I feel the same thing. Butterfly Effect can if this didn't happen, these bad things didn't happen. I might not get to the things that I'm proud of now, kind of thing. So yeah,

3

Speaker 3

37:10

but I had a good like I had a I loved school in junior high and stuff. So I know some people probably be like, actually had so much fun at school. Like I think that was Yeah, like a comedy wise, I got to go there and kind of perform and be funny and play basketball. And so I actually had a good good childhood, which I know you're not supposed to say as a comedian, but I had a pretty sweet

Law Smith

37:35

Yeah, maybe maybe you had it bad in the back died a little bit. Yeah, I heard that story. But yeah, yeah.

3

Speaker 3

37:42

Yeah, the front nine in bed. Yeah. Five and like,

Law Smith

37:46

that's, that's kind of how I look at it. Mom's got the first nine. Dad's got the back nine. Like when they really need to be on top of shit.

37:54

Yeah, that's true. But yeah, I don't know. I

Law Smith

37:56

mean, parenting. Oh, I

37:58

didn't know. I was like, whose mom? Are you talking about?

Law Smith

38:01

Just in general. Because what you need dad around in those, those high school years is what I really want in the middle school high school years, or else. It's wild. But thanks for coming on, man.

3

Speaker 3

38:13

Yeah, of course, man. Oh, good luck with the setup. If I can help you anyway. Like I said, if you want to go for it, I'll reach out to Mike and try to connect you guys. And he's a cool, dude. I'm sure he'll be willing to help. And I'd love to, I would go for it early. And tell the family and friends Hey, I'm gonna go for it. It'll generate a little excitement around the house and then say it's kind of a long shot. So if not, I'll come back. And because there's no place you'd rather beat him with the important people.

Law Smith

38:38

Worst case scenario could probably get to Eric's party at his house by halftime, you know? Yeah, that'd be maybe worth it. Hey, man, I've been around when we won the first one. Super Bowl. We

3

Speaker 3

38:48

were like, Hey, you already won one. So yeah, then you should go for that first one is the win win in that first one to me. I haven't been married or have kids, but I mean, maybe it just shows how sad I am in life the best day of my life. I mean, it was it was a day as a diehard fan, especially losing the first three as a kid like I'll never forget that day I get chills. They played it yesterday was like the anniversary and I'll tear up every time la does that little helicopter and I can hear the announcer best days of my life. So either way, man, I'm rooting for you guys have fun. If I could help you, let me know and if not, just enjoy the day for sure. I'll

Law Smith

39:26

hit you up later, buddy.

3

Speaker 3

39:28

Yeah, let me know. Thanks for having me on guys. Thanks for coming back on. Anytime. See you guys.
