Mariah prop, U2, SB pick

[Big T]

I'm taking Mariah Carey to go under the 1:59 mark on the singing of the national anthem. I've conducted some tests with stop watches and what not and every time comes up about ten seconds short. I think the wild card here is whether she goes with a little instrumental intro. If she does, I'm screwed. You know, most Super Bowl national anthems are lip synced anyway. So somebody already must know if shes gong over.

They are also taking bets on what song U2 sings at halftime with Beautiful Day being the favorite. Somebody has to know this too. Have they not rehearsed? I'm spending the rest of the day making some calls to New Orleans. I'll be back with the results. This could be the LOCK OF MY LIFETIME! I'm not kidding either.

On a side note, I like the Pats and Points.

Big T.

U2

U2

I just got off the phone with some entertainment people and they said U2 will Sing "Stuck in a Moment". They will probably sing more than one song tough. Word must have gotten out as "Stuck in a Moment" is now the odds on favorite.

i think U2 knows about this bet so they will surprise with some cover
intro ? won't bet on this one

good luck




( U2:s fan chat says Bono is live but bands music is recorded earlier )

Vip has odds for first song U2 performs and beautiful day is 1-10! They must know something, or think they do.

how was Mariah Over/Under ?

thanks

The Mariah under was looking good. Real good. And then, she did it. She milked the finish. I can hear it now.....
.........and the home of the braaaaaaaaaveeeeee(come on, spit it out!)eeeeeeeaaaaaaaauuuuuueeeeeeeeeeeehahahahahaheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

By my watch, she went over by 1.2 seconds.

I didn't bet on U2 because (a) the odds for Beautiful Day were too high and (b) the "entertaiment guru" I talked to on the phone semed positive they would sing stuck in a moment. He might have just been messing with me.

I had the Pats and the Under and just a small play on Mariah so I ended up pretty well.

Nice Mariah impression Big T... LMFAO

Would be interested to hear if anyone knows on what the books paid out on re U2 - could be plenty of debate as to what their first song was...

Glad to hear u had a good day mate
