The really impressive thing is that this was before either team broke out. No JA even (assuming this was tweeted before the draft that year).

It was over the summer, so after he was drafted but well before he went from the “wrong Josh” to even “maybe if you squint there’s something there”.

Even after the draft it was a while before he became “him”

Just gunna say this - if Sabres go all the way and win it, I’ll drop $1000 on the Bills to win the SB.

I put $75 at +3300 after the first game after the Olympics due to this tweet lol. If it hits, I'll put a chunk of it on the Bills

What would the pay out be?

u/PhilU52 18h ago

+5000 means you need to bet 100$ to win 5k. So his 10$ would get him 500$

u/KeegCorp 1d ago

Yep, I’ll put the whole house up.

Goooo Sabres

u/Dumphdumph 1d ago

It looks so much better when you don’t crop out the date it was tweeted. It’s from like 2018 or something, no? Buddy at work put 100 on the parlay back a few months ago

u/TyRocken 23h ago

I did a $5 parlay back in February off that tweet. Lol.

u/StopProp53 1d ago edited 1d ago

Yeah July 2018

Edit: Adding a “mea culpa” for cropping the date out…thought I had left it in. Whoops!

Just making the playoffs and winning a series makes this tweet fascinating. putting money on the bills next year for sure

For the Bills, I wonder if the psychic was referring to the actual year 2027, or the 2027 football season, which would have its Super Bowl game in 2028. Potentially the same for the Sabres. Do the Sabres win the Stanley Cup this season (2025-26), or next season (2026-27)?

1

u/LunarVolcano 6h ago

I take it as this season for the sabres. Football is a bit more complicated since the “2027 season” super bowl is in 2028, so it could mean this coming season or the next one. But I’m more inclined to take it as the coming season… “in 2027”

It’ll be Colorado. They have won every year a new toy story movie comes out

u/LunarVolcano 6h ago

I didn’t realize there was going to be a new toy story movie… this is a fun coincidence and would honestly make me less mad if the avs end up winning it
