We have a legitimate gambling story to tell you.
This isn't one of those far-fetched tales from a certain individual who only likes to brag about his wins and somehow never has a loss.
New York native Jona Rechnitz won $25,000 on a $500 bet that a safety would be the first score of Super Bowl XLVIII.

The crazy part of this story is that, according to TMZ, this is the second time Rechnitz has won on this type of prop bet. He hit it in 2012 when the Giants caused an intentional grounding penalty on Tom Brady for two points.
