One lucky bettor just hit the bet of a lifetime.
During the NFC Championship Game between the Los Angeles Rams and San Francisco 49ers, Bleacher Report betting tweeted out a wager from FanDuel Sportsbook of a two-leg parlay on the correct score of each game.
The bettor had already nailed the AFC Championship Game with Bengals 27, Chiefs 24 and the Rams had just taken a 20-17 lead over the 49ers in the NFC Championship Game.

Well, the score between the Rams and 49ers held and this bettor struck big on his parlay.
How big?
Try $579,020 payout big.
Yep, by guessing the correct scores of both games — a parlay that was listed at +2895000 odds (that’s 2,859,000 to 1 chance of getting right for you non-bettors) this individual turned $20 into half a million.
Of course, there will likely be taxes that need to be paid on that, but nevertheless, it’s hard to imagine who had a better championship Sunday than this bettor.
