Betting On Madden? Video Game Tells Lil Wayne, Birdman 10K Bets Are Ill-Advised

After reports this week that rappers Lil Wayne and Birdman apparently used to place 10,000 bets against one another on computer-simulated matchups in the football video game Madden, the video game's Twitter account responded Thursday saying that perhaps that wasn't the best usage of anyone's George Washingtons. "We do not recommend betting 10K on CPU-simulated Madden games," the EA Sports Madden NFL account tweeted. "Even if you have money to blow." The tale of the 10,000 bets was told by singer/auto-tuner extraordinaire T-Pain during a Twitch live-streaming session of the video game "Doom" Tuesday. TMZ published a video clip of the live stream and it took off.
