"Jona Rechnitz, an executive in the New York real estate market, was in a suite at the Cosmo watching the Super Bowl on the big screen with eight buddies from his childhood home in Los Angeles.
Rechnitz had been the butt of all the jokes throughout Sunday. The father of three placed $1,000 on a 50-to-1 bet at the MGM Grand that a Giants’ safety would be the first score of the Super Bowl. It was the biggest bet the MGM sportsbook took on that specific wager, according to director Jay Rood. "
