FanDuel Sportsbook Bettor Lands Massive Payday With Incredible UFC 249 Parlay

Much of the sports world has come to a complete halt in recent weeks and months, but one league that is now up and running again is the UFC. While sports bettors across the globe were clamoring for something, anything, to wager on, the UFC provided that fix with its UFC 249 event on Saturday, May 9.
One bettor who took the opportunity to get in on the action on FanDuel Sportsbook had it pay off big time. Throwing down a simple $10 bet on a 6-leg parlay that involved everything from moneyline winners to various methods of victory, the bettor managed to turn that $10 wager into almost $18,000!

That is quite the welcomed return to the sports betting world! Hitting any parlay is no easy task, regardless of how many legs or what sport it is in, but to hit on one with this many legs and these types of odds? You have to be proud of that accomplishment.
Here's to hoping we get more sports back and can see more payouts as awesome as this one in the coming weeks and months.
Let's go, Colorado!
