-betting on marathon or other endurance sports. Just legalize it. And issue everyone who places a bet a pass to the next Gamblers Anonymous. Because it’s a sure-fire way to identify problem gamblers.

I *think* you could bet on triathlon at the Olympics already, but not sure about marathons etc yet. Probably inevitable though
Yeah, I get you can only have so many motos but agree
