Will the ‘Drake curse’ strike again? Canadian rapper places over ONE MILLION DOLLARS bet on the Kansas City Chiefs to win Sunday’s AFC title game against the Cincinnati Bengals
Canadian rapper Drake decided to tempt fate yet again by placing a massive bet on the Kansas City Chiefs to win Sunday’s AFC Championship Game.
For the second straight season, the Chiefs will host the Cincinnati Bengals in the AFC title game this Sunday night for a spot in Super Bowl LVII in Los Angeles.
Drake’s endorsement has become a notorious omen for some sports teams, with many believing there is a ‘Drake curse’ for teams that want to win.
Canadian rapper Drake has publicly revealed his bet for Sunday’s AFC Championship game.
On his Instagram Story, he revealed that he spent $1.1 million for the Chiefs to beat the Bengals.
As if the Kansas City Chiefs needed any more bad luck, they will face the Bengals while star quarterback Patrick Mahomes deals with an ankle injury.
Mahomes sprained his high right ankle in his divisional round win over the Jacksonville Jaguars last week.
While he says he’ll be ready to play on Sunday, that possibility of a lack of mobility could hurt Kansas City’s chances of reaching its third Super Bowl in four seasons.
In addition, they will play against the Bengals and quarterback Joe Burrow, who has never lost to the Chiefs in his NFL career. That includes a 27-24 win for Cincinnati over KC earlier this season.

Drake has experienced some angst when it comes to dropping high-stakes bets in recent months.
The rapper recently lost a $1 million bet on Argentina to win the 2022 FIFA World Cup Final in regulation time, which didn’t happen. He stood up to win $2.75 million.
In November, Drake threw down $2 million in Canadian dollars for Israel Adesanya to win UFC 281 over Alex Pereira. Unfortunately for the rapper, Pereira won in the fifth round by knockout.
In October, Drake stepped into the world of Spanish and English soccer, placing over CA$833,000 in a two-legged parlay for Barcelona to beat Real Madrid and Arsenal to beat Leeds United.
The Gunners knew how to deal with the whites. However, Xavi’s team fell to Los Blancos, with Drake losing with a return of CA$3.9 million.
