per ESPN: A wild scene in Vegas after Michigan-Michigan State
The reactions in Ann Arbor and Las Vegas to the wild Michigan State-Michigan ending Saturday night were equally awesome.
We'll start in Vegas, where a bettor at Sunset Station's sportsbook was left digging through the trash for his Spartans ticket; a $30,000 money-line bet on the Wolverines turned into garbage and a $50 eight-team parlay that included Michigan State on the money line turned into $11,000.
"I was out in the book and a guest yelled, 'Oh my god, I threw my ticket away,'" said Sunset Station sportsbook director Chuck Esposito, who didn't think the bet was that big, but didn't know the exact amount. "I did see him in line a short time later, cashing with a big smile."
Esposito said it was standing room only in his book when Michigan State's Jalen Watts-Jackson returned a fumbled punt snap for the winning touchdown on the final play of the game.
"I can't remember the book being as loud for a non-championship game in any sport," Esposito told Chalk on Sunday. "If you think the crowd in Michigan was loud, you should have been in our books. Many guests are still talking about it today."
