Last night, our family got together to cheer on the Thrilla from Manila, Manny Pacquiao. It was a great fight and we we made it a little more interesting by having a friendly bet going. We all chipped in $5 and picked random numbers, 1-13. The person holding the number in which the fight ended won the pool (yes I know there are only 12 rounds but 13 was reserved for a draw decision). I felt pretty lucky with number 7, but as we all know they declared Manny the winner by TKO after the end of the 8th round.
My uncles are a trip and filled the night with lots of free entertainment.
