Default Jesse Ventura endorses sportsbook...lol

The Former wrestler/announcer, former governor has now been coming on sports talk radio in Oklahoma City endorsing BETUS.COM Wow how things change. How a man can go from running a whole state to backing a sportsbook, that to a sorry ass one is just krazy!!!

Anyone else heard this commercial in their cities???

I heard it was between Ventura and The Macho Man but Macho was under contract by Slim Jim so BetUs went with the Gov.

He might actually be a good pick up for sportsbook marketing since he used the internet to win his election.

BetUS advertises at lots of websites and you will see Ventura's name right there as an endorsement.

Anybody else wonder which cast member of Predator will become the next governor of some state? Carl Weathers maybe?
