Caesars Sportsbook & Casino shares potential payout for bet that Rockies will win World Series

Jun 6, 2025, 3:57 PM | Updated: Jun 9, 2025, 5:06 pm

The chances that the Colorado Rockies win the World Series in 2025 are about as good as getting bit by a shark in Colorado or me winning an Olympic medal. But, imagine betting on them to do it, and miraculously they did…

Caesars Sportsbook & Casino shared on their social media that a bettor in New York wagered $5 on the Colorado Rockies to win the World Series at +500,000 odds, meaning a win would pay $25,000! 

For fun, I did some math and found that if you bet $100 with the same odds, a win would net you a cool $500,000.

With those odds, the casino is also telling you there is a .02 percent chance of this happening, so basically you might as well light your money on fire….still fun to think about, though!
