Michigan Governor pays off his bet after loss to MSU
Published:
You can bet there were many dollars exchanged over the Michigan and Michigan State game.
And you can bet there were plenty of other, well, bets.
Michigan Governor Rick Snyder and Michigan Lt. Governor Brian Calley were among those who placed wagers on Saturday’s game. Snyder, a Michigan grad, and Calley, an MSU grad, did not bet money. Instead, they wagered some public humiliation in the form of ties.
After all, they are politicians.
Who will wear the tie?
We'll find out soon, @LtGovCalley #GoBlue –> http://t.co/boTjZcRzqB pic.twitter.com/aInb3H0ESn

Snyder lived up to his end of the bargain on Wednesday and showed up to the office repping the green and white. He tweeted out a picture of himself in the MSU tie.
And of course, there was a jab at Ohio State.
No matter who you were cheering for this weekend, now let's all root to beat Ohio State. #GoBlue #GoGreen pic.twitter.com/0E1Fpjs2ca
