The story of a bettor who placed a $13 parlay containing five picks on the 2025 champions for various major league sports has captivated social media in recent weeks.
With the LA Dodgers, New York Liberty, and the Philadelphia Eagles already victorious, Drew Hirschman is just waiting on the Edmonton Oilers and Oklahoma City Thunder to come good on his +2082680 wager.

Despite having the option to cash out for $123,614 after Game 1 of the Stanley Cup a week ago, the recent college graduate remained determined to ride it out and secure the total $270,762 win. He may be regretting that decision, as the Oilers are now 2-1 down in their series against the Florida Panthers and the heavy underdogs Indiana Pacers lead 2-1 in the NBA Finals.
His cash-out is now down to $60,000, with the New Yorker looking visibly deflated when posting an update on his situation and attempting to remain optimistic about his chances:
Hirschman won’t walk away with nothing if the parlay ends up being a dud, as he’s managed to hedge for over $50,000 with the help of his father, who’s an actuary. The 24-year-old has had offers upwards of $115,000 to sell the slip.
