Newlyweds were gifted a 4-leg MLB parlay tip for their wedding. It actually cashed out

Let me tell you, as a sometimes awful gift giver, there’s one gift you can never go wrong with, and that’s the gift of cash. When I have no clue what to get someone, I throw a couple bucks in a Hallmark and let them decide on their own.

That’s what one person did as a wedding gift for Twitter user Vin Simeone…kind of. Simeone shared an image of the card his buddy gave him, and the cash wasn’t exactly in hand.

Simeone’s money was gifted in the form of a four-leg parlay on Monday’s MLB action. His buddy drew a little lock underneath the picks, which was apparently all Simeone needed to put $50 on the action. And it actually cashed for a gift of more than $600.

Having to spend your own money to unlock the potential for more money as a wedding gift sounds like the pyramid scheme I was lucky to dodge in college.

But it worked out for Simeone. And I’m guessing his buddy gifted himself a few bucks as well. So I guess all’s well that ends well.
