How much did you bet on Dallas’ victory?
Jim McIngvale, better known as Mattress Mack, trusts the Dallas Cowboys so much that he decided to bet 2 million dollars that they will eliminate the 49ers from San Francisco in the Divisional Round and therefore will advance to the NFC Finals.
In case of hitting his forecast, he could take more than five million green tickets. Notably the Cowboys already made him win this seasonsince he had put 200 thousand dollars at stake, pointing out that they were going to defeat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
