GAMBLER THANKS GOD FOR HELP WITH SIN
Las Vegas, NV
Jake Deez, a recreational gambler who spent the super bowl weekend in Vegas, did something this morning that he almost never does; he went to church.
While at church, Jake says he "prayed with every once of my body that the Panthers would cover the spread, I mean, they've had it close all year, but i thought the Pats might wipe the field with em! So I prayed my fuckin' ass off cause I got in a bit over my head and after a few drinks bet my daughter on this game against a Porsche."
At a small chapel just off the Las Vegas Strip, Deez prayed for over two hours that god would assist him with his ultra-sinful behavior.
"I know gambling's wrong, God, but so is genocide, and you let people get a go at that every once in a while, so just help me out please, I mean pretty please with a cherry on top," Jake was overheard saying in the chapel.
The priest heard his praying and wondered aloud, "is it ok to think like that?"
Just following the game, Deez exclaimed "THANK YOU GOD! I'M GONNA DEDICATE THE REST OF MY LIFE TO YOU AND YOUR COMMANDMENTS." He then proceeded to swan-dive onto a bed full of hookers and champagne at the Crazy Horse, where he viewed the game.
