Betting is an eventual part of sports, and soccer is no exception. Expert bookies and fans alike test their prediction skills, hoping to cash in significantly if their prophecies come true. Many celebrities also take a chance with destiny, and one of the most notable names in this arena is Drake. The American singer recently gambled $300K on Canada to win their Copa America 2024 semifinal clash against Lionel Messi‘s Argentina. However, his prediction did not pan out, resulting in a significant loss. This event instigates a closer look at Drake’s past betting record and how has he fared in other sports, such as the NBA Finals and the Super Bowl.
Other A-listers betting in sports has never been as controversial as Drake doing so. The American rapper has a unique history when it comes to gambling as many even call him a ‘curse.’ This is because whoever he places the bet on, losses. Today was no exception as CanMNT lost 2-0 to reigning champions, with Drake also losing out on a potential $2.8-million payout. So which other bets have seen him face major financial loss.
