Succa and I made a bet on who would finish with a better regular season record in the NHL - the Ottawa Senators or the Boston Bruins. No money will be exchanged, so we were thining that public humiliation of some sort would be in order instead. Photographic evidence would also be necessary, as Succa lives in Canada and I'm in New Jersey. Any ideas? Even though I live in the smelliest state in the lower 48, I'd be willing to travel to the Fleet Center in Massachusetts in order to publicly embarass myself if necessary, and I'm think Succa might do the same at the Corel Center. We need your help. Any good ideas? For Succa's sake, I think the only rule should be no nudity (it gets real cold in Canada).

we ALL know that Toronto will have more points than both Ottawa AND Boston. I'm laughing, is everyone else? (though the Leaves were impressive last night)

It's not quite the same, but a previous bet (which I lost) involved dressing in another team's clothing and getting one's picture taken in the very 'heart' of your own team's ground. In this case, it was UNC gear that I was supposed to wear, while standing in front of the Duke Chapel. It probably wouldn't be the same at the Fleet Center, unless it was arranged to be at the following season's season opener or something like that. An 'internet friend' has a standing promise to parade naked down the streets of Chapel Hill should Clemson ever win there. [They are currently 0-48 or something like that in Chapel Hill.]

My friend has a bet exactly like tieguys's with his Uncle for the UGA-Florida football game. The rule is that after the game, for whomever's team looses, they must walk around the grounds (since it is the world's largest tailgating party) in the winning teams's colors...and by this, i mean nothing but a speado of the other team and go decked out in body paint.

You should have got me involved in the bet, as we ALL know that Toronto will have more points than both Ottawa AND Boston.
