Drake has placed a number of "psychotic" bets on today's Super Bowl LVII game, including $1 million on the Kansas City Chiefs to beat the Philadelphia Eagles.
The game - one of the most highly-anticipated sporting events in the world - has returned for another year, with the Eagles and the Chiefs set to battle it out in Glendale, Arizona.
Already expected to be a tense competition, the Eagles have been projected to take home the Lombardi Trophy tonight, with 63.4% of experts interviewed by ESPN favoring the Philadelphia team.
However, not everyone seems to agree with the prediction, including Drake who has placed a whopping $700,000 on today's underdogs to win.
According to CBS, the 'God's Plan' rapper hasn't stopped there. In fact, he's also placed $50,ooo on Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes to score the game's first touchdown ($750,000 payout), as well as $50,000 JuJu Smith-Schuster as the Chiefs' first touchdown scorer ($500,000 payout), Kansas City to win both halves ( $50,000 to win $250,000), and Kansas City to win each quarter ($30,000 to win $630,000).
He's also bet that the Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce will win the game's Most Valuable Player ($25,000 to win $350,000), and that the tight end position will win the Most Valuable Player ($60,000 to win $600,000).
With a total of $965,000, he could potentially take home a cool $4.5 million...
Drake posted about the bets via Instagram, captioning an image: "My psychotic bets for Sunday are in @stake," and tagging Stake, a popular betting platform. "pls do not analyze the logic behind these bets there is none [sic]," the 36-year-old Canadian added.
Given that he's bet on two separate players to score the game's first touchdown, Drake obviously won't be taking home all of his bets in a clean sweep. Given that no tight end has ever won MVP, he's clearly choosing to make some bold predictions.
Evidently, he's not a fan of the Eagles, after he backed the San Francisco 49ers over the Philadelphia team for the NFL Championship. Unfortunately, he ended up losing his $850,000 bet after the Eagles won the game. If he had won, however, he would have been able to take home $1.9 million.
Just several weeks ago, Drake took home $2.1 million after Kansas City defeated the Cincinnati Bengals in the American Football Conference (AFC) Championship. The winner of this game advances to the Super Bowl to play the winner of the National Football Conference (NFC) Championship.
