The St. Louis Blues have never hoisted Lord Stanley in their 52-year history, but that didn't stop fan Scott Berry from putting a good amount of money on his favorite team.
Now, it's on the verge of paying off in a big way.
According to ESPN.com's Ben Fawkes, Berry was in Las Vegas in January when he decided to make a couple of wagers at a Caesars sportsbook.
"I bet with the heart on this one," Berry told Fawkes. "Before I hit my flight, I decided that had I been here gambling I probably would've lost around $500, so I pulled that out of the bank account.
