There’s a furniture store in Texas which promised a certain number of customers who spent a certain amount of money on furniture a refund if the Houston Astros didn’t lose 100 games this year. Yesterday’s win ensures that the Astros will lose no more than 99 games. Ergo:
At GF, the customer is ALWAYS the winner! Congrats @Astros for #Win63, Congrats to our great customers, over $4,000,000 will be refunded!!

One assumes that Mattress Mack is not insane and that he either had insurance for the stunt or else has such margins on his items that this is merely $4 million in advertising costs which have paid off. Heck, you didn’t even know who this guy was until I just posted this. So well done, Mack.
