Grammy-winning rapper Drake has become notorious for his absolutely massive wagers on sporting events, and it looks like he’s doing it once again this year for the Super Bowl LVIII matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers. And he’s siding with the Swifties.
This week, Drake posted a screenshot of a bet slip from the sportsbook Stake showing his absolutely massive wager on the Kansas City Chiefs to win the game over the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday night.
As the bet slip shows, Drake is betting $1.15 million on Kansas City to win Super Bowl LVIII over the Niners, and he had a pretty fun message to explain the decision.
“Can’t bet against the Swifties,” Drake said in a post on Instagram.
Obviously, this wager caught the attention of the social media world, leading to a lot of reactions.

If Drake does win the bet, it will return $2.346 million – which would obviously be a pretty massive payday for the superstar rapper. If it loses, though, it’s safe to say that Drake could survive the loss as he has an estimated net worth of around $250 million.
We’ll have to see who comes out on top.
