A friend of my son's, put a soccer bet on with PP. Hull to win. Neither the friend or cashier twigged that the are 3 teams which has Hull as the 1st word of their club name. Hull City (soccer) Hull (RUFC) & Hull Kingston Rovers (Rugby league). Hull City won & the friend produced the ticket at PP for paying out. The cashier was different and was more clued up. As it happend, when the cashier checked all 3 clubs, all 3 teams won and the odds was the same for all 3 and he got paid. That outcome, had to have been a million to one shot.
