Betfred boss Fred Done has paid out early on bets placed on Betfred Sponsored NFL team, Cincinnati Bengals to win Super Bowl LVII in Arizona. 

On a trip to BetfredSports Las Vegas Headquarters this week, 79-year-old Betfred founder and owner took the opportunity to show the newly regulated US gambling industry just exactly what they could expect in the future.

Just like Fred’s infamous early payout on his beloved Manchester United to win the league in 1998, which ultimately cost him £500,000, as Arsenal went on to pip them for the league, Fred has surprised and delighted Bengals backers by settling their slips in full.

This is even more remarkable given ‘Who Dey’ are 10/11 joint favourites against the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Championship game, on Sunday night.

Then they would have to beat either the No 1 NFC seed Philadelphia Eagles or the behemoth that is the San Francisco 49ers in the Super Bowl.

Ohio bettors have been stunned on Twitter by the promotion and logged into their Betfred app to find the wagers placed earlier this year have already been settled in full.

Not only that but Fred announced that they would be paying out worldwide, meaning an early boost for UK customers.
