Bigfoot Betting odds?

Odds Bigfoot exists?

 

For those gamblers out there, I thought this might be interesting.   I am not a gambler, so I don't know what -225 or +150 really mean.  

 

When people tell us what they think, they may speak of pure passion but not on fact.    Example might be "The Jets are winning the Superbowl"   But when we bet it more telling what we really think will happen.  When money is on the line it clarifies and makes our opinion more honest.  Thus, the guy who says the Jets will win the Superbowl are more likely to say, "The Chiefs or Eagles will win it" if betting is on the line.    

 

 

For what is worth I stumbled across this.......

 

 

Does Bigfoot really exist, or is it all an urban legend? Is there any chance of the mystical creature ever being found? We are examining the latest betting odds that Bigfoot exists and making some wacky predictions on whether Sasquatch will be discovered.

Online bookmakers have released intriguing Bigfoot prop bets on the prospect of finding the elusive creature, so let’s dive in below to see different perspectives!

Odds That Bigfoot Exists: What the Bookies Think

The following Bigfoot betting odds are courtesy of BetUS:

 

PROP BET	ODDS
Bigfoot to Be Found in the US	-225
Bigfoot to Be Found in Canada	+150
Bigfoot to Be Found in 2025	+30000

The best entertainment betting sites have released a number of betting markets on the discovery of Bigfoot. Currently, BetUS has three prop bets available, which give bettors an opportunity to cash in on Sasquatch’s whereabouts!

According to the latest odds of finding Bigfoot, the species is most likely to be found in the United States. With a price of -225, there is a 69.2% implied probability of Bigfoot being found on US land.

Despite Canada having a large landmass, the odds of Bigfoot existing in Canada isn’t as high at +150. In other words, BetUS has tabbed Canada as having a 40% implied chance of finding Bigfoot.

In addition to having a larger landmass, Canada has 9% of the world’s forests (362 million hectares), while the US has 8% (304 million hectares) coverage. If Bigfoot exists, the creatures are more likely to be hanging out in the forest, far away from human civilization.

 

Although the North American Bigfoot Center is in Boring, OR, the best value is on Bigfoot being found in Canada’s Pacific Northwest! It’s highly unlikely the creature would be setting up its home near any national center dedicated to itself.

With this in mind, if you are interested in betting on this unique Bigfoot prop bet, I recommend Canada at +150.

As an aside, at +30000 odds, there is just a 0.3% implied probability of Bigfoot being discovered in 2025. While a lot of crazy events have been happening around the world, I’m not optimistic about humans finding Bigfoot in 2025.

I have a lot of bad habits, but gambling isn't one of them, so I'm sure my numbers are wacked out. Also I'm not sure what "found" means.  If that means acknowledged, then 0% chance.  If found means hundreds of random human minding their own business having an unexpected, unplanned, unwanted, and overwhelming interaction with a forest person,  then 100%.  I would be happy to not join that club ;>)

I don't know how they define "found" either.   

 

I am hoping someone well versed in odds and gambling can clarify the article I found.  Better yet, they might even stumble across a more detailed betting site which includes betting on Bigfoot.

 

We all know impossible if 0% chance of something and certainty is 100% of something.  I suppose everything else is just some range of likelihood between 0 and 100

Several years ago, when I was active on the JREF/International Skeptics Forum, I ended up betting that Sasquatch would be scientifically proven by X date, which was a couple of years in the future.  In the negotiations, I was able to talk them into giving me odds of 50,000 to 1, so I put up $50.  That X date came and went and I paid $50 to a charity of his choice.  

 

It was fun and added something to the back and forth banter that I dealt with on that site.  I wasn't ever going to collect $2.5 million if science finally proved they exist, but I was willing to put my money up for the cause.

Not trying to throw a wrench in this discussion. But I think discovery has already happened and they are hiding it.
 

The Giant research people are reaching the same conclusion. The Smithsonian is exempt from any tribal requests for remains. Like the Lovelock cave Giants in Paiute lands. They won’t cough up anything.

 

I always watch other parallel fields because they are so relevant to us. The UFO field is white hot right now with Congressional hearings happening all the time. But they are not getting anywhere because Congress does not have access to the darkest alleys of our secrets.

 

What is truly amazing to me is that the UFO people are not letting it deter them. And they have set up retrieval teams in case of a crash. They plan on beating the government to the crash site and get proof.

 

Either way? If Bigfoot is real? The truth will absolutely come out someday. And the nay sayers will probably never give the PGF or any researcher any credit. They will just move on with the scientific data like it’s no big deal. “Oh well Paranthropus Americanus has nothing to do with the PGF…..everyone knows that was a hoax.”🤷‍♂️
