Houston furniture store owner Jim “Mattress Mack” McIngvale, famous for his public big-money wagers on Texas sports and philanthropy, has placed two $1 million bets on the Dallas Cowboys moneyline for their Sunday game against the San Francisco 49ers.
The NFL Divisional Round matchup is neither “Mattress Mack” nor the Cowboys’ first rodeo.
The Cowboys have had eight previous playoff games against the 49ers, including last year’s home wild-card loss where the Cowboys ran out of time after the umpire was delayed in getting the ball after a play.
McIngvale recently lost a $3 million bet when the TCU Horned Frogs failed to cover a +12.
