Newlywed couple made 49ers Super Bowl bets for all their September wedding guests in a brilliant giveaway

One couple found a way to keep their wedding reception going for another six months

The 180 guests who attended the wedding of  Matt and Jessica Grime in Lake Tahoe last September likely haven’t stopped thinking about that day ever since.

Not just because the wedding was so delightful (or a disaster, we really can’t say), but because of how the newlyweds thanked everyone who showed up to support them. The two super fans of the San Francisco 49ers decided to place bets on their team to win Super Bowl 58 at +850 and hand out the tickets as a party favor.

Well, six months later the party is still going. The Niners aren’t just in the Super Bowl, but they’re also the consensus favorites to defeat the Kansas City Chiefs.

According to a profile of the couple in People magazine, the Grimes made 180 bets at $2 per ticket on the then-future wagers before handing them out with the note, “You bet on us, so we placed a bet for you. We hope you get as lucky as us!”
