Senator Debbie Stabenow places beer bet on Michigan winning national championship

U.S. Sen. Debbie Stabenow is a Michigan State graduate but that didn't stop her from placing a friendly wager on Michigan in tonight's national championship against Villanova.

Stabenow, the first woman from Michigan elected to the United States Senate, tweeted at U.S. Sen. Bob Casey from Pennsylvania on Monday, asking if he wanted to make a bet on the game while wagering "amazing Michigan craft beer" that the Wolverines will win.

Hey @SenBobCasey! Looking to make a friendly wager for the @MarchMadness #NationalChampionship game tonight?? I bet some of our amazing Michigan craft beer that @UMichBBall #Wolverines will win!
