How in the World??

My husband John is a big basketball fan, especially of the Utah Jazz. He is greatly enjoying the playoff season. As of Friday night the Jazz had won two home games and were now playing at the Warrior's home for the next two games. The Warrior fans are notorious for helping their team win those home games, and after the Jazz got their trash kicked on Friday night, a lot of people expected the Jazz to lose the next game too, since they'd still be in the Warrior's home court. Well, after the game on Friday night, John loudly declared, "I bet the Jazz will win the game on Sunday by 14 points!" His younger sister quickly took him up on the bet, hoping they'd win, but not believing they would. She countered and said that they would lose by 15 points. So they made the bet as follows: if the Jazz won, Amy owed John $10 and if they lost then John owed Amy $10. However, if either one of them won their bet right on the nose, then they would pay the other $15. On Sunday night, John wasn't watching the game, but was keeping tabs on the scores as they updated on the internet. The game was very close. We were up at his parent's house for Mother's Day and when it came time to leave, the game still wasn't over yet, but we knew it would be over before we arrived at home. John adamantly told his brother in law NOT to call him when the game was over because he wanted to find out the score on his own when he got home. So even when Doug called, just before we pulled up to our house, John didn't answer it. He parked the car and ran into the house straight to the computer to pull up the scores. Surprised, he yelled out, "No way!!! They won by 14 points!!!" Amy had come home with us to stay the night and had no intention of believing her older brother who is constantly teasing her. What are the chances that he won that bet right on? Pretty slim. But sure enough, we both walked in to look at the final score and were shocked when we read: 115 to 101, Jazz win. John called his brother in law back and Doug asked incredulously, "how did you do that!? You had to have called someone!!!" I'm not really sure how it's possible to call into the future, but somehow John called it right on the mark two days before the game and now we get to enjoy a date out together with Amy's $15!
