Drake Says He’s Done With Sports Betting After $1 Million Super Bowl Loss

An Instagram roulette video he shared was noted by outlets as appearing tied to Stake.

Overview

  • Drake revealed before Super Bowl LX that he wagered $1 million on the New England Patriots to beat the Seattle Seahawks.
  • The Seahawks defeated New England 29–13, wiping out a potential payout reported at about $2.95 million.
  • Days later, he posted on Instagram that he is "off sports betting," saying he is sticking to what he knows.
