The bar Whiskey Tango in Hollywood, Florida offered a deal to its customers: "If the Heat lost the game, that fan would earn a $25 credit towards his or her alcohol bill." The assumption was that the basketball team stacked with LeBron James, Chris Bosh, and Dwyane Wade would almost never lose, but unfortunately their record is 9-8. So far the owners have refunded about $30,000 in drinks, but the upside is that they've gotten tons of media attention. [CNBC]
