I get a kick out of the post game "predictions". Our son is in New Zealand and called to say that since it was Monday there he could tell us who won the game. HA HA
Reminds me of my dear Uncle Ed and Aunt June who set up a betting room at a SF bay area hotel back in the fifties. They had some local players in to place bets up to the last minute results from the broadcast radio. Meanwhile, my aunt was in the parking lot at Bay-Meadows with binoculars on the finish line. Two blocks away they had a pay phone marked "out of order" with an open connection to my Uncle (later an elder) at the hotel. They would lay down last second bets even before it had been called over the radio.
Years later my wife and I took them to see "The Sting", which they enjoyed immensly.
