Paddy Power pays out on a Lions series win and hits back at Aussie arm with new ad

The Irish bookie is certainly confident the Lions have this one in the bag…

Despite the fact that the Lions only won the first Test by two points, and probably should have lost, Paddy Power have decided to pay out any bets on a Lions series win.

With all the injuries suffered by the Wallabies the Lions are certainly in a strong position, only needing one more win to take a first series win since 1997 but with Paul O’Connell out and worries about a few more key players, we don’t think this series is over by a long shot.

You also might recall the ad that Aussie bookies Sportsbet put up beside Melbourne airport last week. Well now Paddy Power have hit back with an equally saucy ad of their own.

Paddy owns Sportsbet so this is really like the left hand fighting with the right hand but still, it’s all good, slightly grubby, fun right?
