FIRST EVER $50K “BEAT BOSTON” NCAA MEN’S BASKETBALL CONTEST PITS PRO TOUT V. PRO BETTOR IN A WINNER TAKES ALL MATCH-UP
LAS VEGAS, NV – Jan. 6— SportsMemo.com’s Brent Crow will take on Alan Boston in
Leroy’s $50K “Beat Boston” College Basketball Contest live from Leroy’s sportsbook in
Las Vegas’s Riviera Hotel and Casino every Friday night for the next eight weeks.
The contest is comprised of five selections and one “best bet” submitted weekly. It will
pit Senior Sports Memo Handicapper and former college basketball player, Crow
against professional bettor Boston, featured in, “The Odds: One Season, Three
Gamblers, and the Death of Their Las Vegas” by Chad Millman.
John Kelly and Arne Lang will co-host the contest that matches up Crow, a modest
and well respected gaming expert against Boston an arrogant, anti-tout professional
bettor. It will air on KDWN-AM 720 Friday nights from 8pm-9pm PST for eight weeks
starting Jan. 6th.
“This match up will be interesting to watch as it unfolds; Crow’s laid back,
unpretentious style will definitely contrast with Boston’s brash nature,” commented
Sports Memo’s CEO Tim Trushel.
Crow posted an NCAA Men’s Basketball record of 67-41 62% in 2004-2005, bringing his
five year documented record to 452-337 57.3%. Currently, Boston does not have a
documented record.

endorse the underdog, Crow. Nine.com’s famous Nine girls will also be on site for
photo opportunities and free prizes.
