Get Your Cheese Up By Gambling

Money is evaporating from the World. Markets are shrinking. Except that 80% of Tar Heel fans think a National Title is a given - so there's a market. If your financials have imploded completely, consider playing on the lofty expectations of the more fervent UNC fans by laying down some fantasy league side-bets. You can really profit this year due to super high expectations and misunderstandings of realistic title odds.
Here are some ideas to get your cheese to go up:
1) Offer a jingoistic Tar Heel an even bet (1:1) that UNC wins the national title. They might just take it.
2) Offer 1:5 odds that Duke will win the ACC. More risk, but high payoff.
3) Offer a particularly uninformed fan 1:10 odds that Wake will beat UNC. The game's in Winston, and Wake fans will be pumped.
4) Virginia Tech could beat UNC at VT. Offer 1:20 that a team from Virginia will defeat the mighty Tar Heels.
5) Straight up (1:1) Duke will win in Cameron.
You get the gist. There is arbitrage right under your noses...things certainly aren't as lopsided as they seem to some.
