Weird Things to Gamble On: Craziest Bets Available Online

Aliens

First on my list of weird things you can bet on are aliens! BetUS offers multiple markets for extraterrestrials, including where aliens will be confirmed to exist by the end of 2025 (+250).

Another way to wager on aliens is to bet on whether any well-known celebrities will be revealed as extraterrestrials. BetUS lists the following celebs as favorites to be confirmed as aliens.

• • Dennis Rodman (+1200)
  • Steven Spielberg (+1300)
  • Mark Zuckerberg (+1500)
  • Kanye West (+2000)
  • Miley Cyrus (+2000)

Of course, when you are talking about aliens, you cannot overlook the possibility of an alien abduction. Here are the favorites to be abducted by aliens first.

• • Donald Trump Sr. (+1200)
  • Vladimir Putin (+1800)
  • Elon Musk (+2000)
  • Barrack Obama (+2000)
  • Taylor Swift (+2200)

Both wagers must be graded by the end of 2025. If you feel adventurous and want to try a wager on these, you will find them at BetUS.

Sperm Racing Cup

The growing world of sperm racing is one of the most bizarre new competitions for bettors to enjoy. Thanks to BetUS, there are two exciting futures markets for the upcoming World Cup for this fertile new sport.

• Current record to be broken (-1000)
• Continent of Winner
  • Eurasia (-300)
  • North America (+200)
  • Africa (+300)
  • South America (+500)
  • Australia (+2000)

The current world record was set by a member of USC during the USC vs. UCLA meet last year. At that competition, the record for one lap of the 3,800μm track is 64 seconds.

This year’s World Cup does not have a set date, but it will offer a $100,000 prize to the winner. Athletes from 128 countries are expected to compete.

You can also wager on which continent the winner of the Sperm Racing Cup will be from. Europe and Asia are combined as one option. Given the sheer number of potential competitors, it is no surprise that Eurasia is listed as the -300 favorites.

North America has the second-best odds at 2-1, with Africa rounding out the top three at 3-1. South America (+500) and Australia (+2000) are also available in this strange betting market.

The 2026 Patriot Games

President Donald Trump recently announced the Patriot Games as part of the Freedom 250 initiative. Some believe this is a distraction effort, but either way, the even should happen this year.

There is not much known about the games so far. However, according to the President, two high school athletes from each state and territory will compete in a four-day athletic event.

BetOnline is offering odds on which states the winners of the Men’s and Women’s divisions will be from.

You can bet on all 50 states and multiple US territories, but the top favorites in each division are:

States such as California and Texas, which have large populations and a reputation for producing high school athletes, have inherent advantages in this bizarre betting market.

Sydney Sweeney in Politics

BetOnline has a great selection of bizarre wagers for novelty bettors to choose from. These two wagers concerning actress Sydney Sweeney are available in the politics section:

• • Trump to appoint Sydney Sweeney as a U.S. Ambassador (+2000)
  • Trump to appoint Sydney Sweeney to a cabinet position (+2500)

Sweeney’s 2025 American Eagle jeans advertisements promoting her “great jeans” drew criticism for promoting eugenics. It even earned her the nickname MAGA Barbie. Many Republicans, including Trump, have praised Sweeney for the ads.

The actress is listed at +2000 odds to be named a U.S. Ambassador and available at 25-1 to be named to a cabinet position.

Kristi Noem was recently removed as DHS head, but Trump has already nominated Markwayne Mullin for the position. Unless Mullin fails to be confirmed, there will not be an open position in Trump’s Cabinet for the foreseeable future.

On the other hand, finding an open ambassador position is much easier. If Sweeney decides to backtrack on her previous commitment to avoid politics and openly endorse Trump, she could have an ambassadorial position in her future, but this seems extremely unlikely.

Flight MH370

BetUS is also offering odds on the mysterious disappearance of Flight MH370. The Malaysia Airlines flight disappeared in March 2014 and has not been found since.

Twelve years after Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 vanished with 239 people aboard, a renewed search in the southern Indian Ocean has so far failed to locate the missing aircraft, authorities said Sunday, as families pressed for the effort to continue. https://t.co/Mxmo5g79eO

— ABC News (@ABC) March 8, 2026

Members of BetUS can wager on the wreckage of the infamous flight being found this summer.

• • Wreckage found by June 30th, 2026 (+800)

It has been more than a decade since MH370 disappeared, and there have been multiple search efforts since. It has not been found yet, but that has not stopped the multinational search efforts in Southeast Asia and the southern Indian Ocean.

The chances of finding the wreckage of the flight are low, and the window for this wager is small. On the plus side, the 8-1 odds offer a nice return on even small wagers in this current events betting market.

Kim Kardashian’s Bar Exam

The Kardashian family has been a major player in pop culture for decades, and they just refuse to go away. There have been many weird bets on the famous family over the years, but this one is among the most bizarre.

Lately, Kim Kardashian’s quest to become a lawyer has fascinated fans and haters alike. Her father, Robert Kardashian, was a famous lawyer who made a name for himself by helping O.J. Simpson get acquitted.

After years of studying and preparation, Kim announced that she failed the California Bar Exam last year. Cali’s exam is notoriously challenging to pass.

Bovada has the following market for Kim’s continued efforts to pass the Bar in the Golden State: Will Kim Kardashian pass the bar exam by May 3rd?

• • Yes (+600)
  • No (-1200)

The short timeline for this bizarre wager leaves Kim little time to pass the test. So, it is not surprising that the “no” option is listed as a -1200 favorite. Kim’s supporters, on the other hand, can bet on the Kardashian passing the test at 6-1 odds.

FBI Top 10 Most Wanted List

BetUS also has unique bets available, including wagers regarding the FBI’s most wanted list.

Any fugitive from the FBI Top 10 Most Wanted list captured by June 2026:

• • Yes (-350)
  • No (+225)

#BREAKING 🚨 Olympian turned drug kingpin Ryan Wedding — currently on the FBI's top 10 most wanted list — has been accused of ordering the murder of a witness.

— TMZ (@TMZ) November 19, 2025

The list is fluid, and you can view an updated Top 10 Most Wanted ranking on the FBI’s website. Two members of the list, Ryan Wedding and Cindy Rodrigues Singh, were recently captured. For the yes option in this wager to cash at -350 odds, any other fugitive in the Top 10 must be captured by June 2026.

The FBI looks nationwide for the criminals on the list, and tips are submitted from across the country. Successful tips could lead to cash rewards, so there is plenty of incentive for others to turn in the wanted fugitives.

Betting on this market could help you cash in on their efforts. There is also “no” option available at +225 odds if you do not think another member of the Top 10 will be caught by next summer.

Next Celebrities to Be Arrested

Celebrity exploits are another way to wager on novelty betting lines. One of the weirdest ways to bet on celebrity futures is to wager on the next celeb to be arrested or jailed.

BetUS has these odds for celebs battling the legal system in 2025:

• • Kanye West to be arrested in 2025 (+750)
  • Stacey Abrams to be arrested in 2025 (+1600)
  • Dave Portnoy to be in jail in 2025 (+1600)
  • Mikey Shelton to be in Jail in 2025 (+1400)

Kanye has had his fair share of legal issues over the years, including multiple arrests since 2008. His recent problems include a sexual assault and battery lawsuit brought against West by a former assistant, Lauren Pisciotta, in 2024.

Other public figures, such as Stacey Abrams and Dave Portnoy, are also available to bet on. Mikey Shelton is not as well-known as the other options in these markets, but the crypto trader has been accused of insider trading.
