Rapper T-Pain tells the craziest story of 'Madden' bets you'll ever hear
Apparently Lil Wayne and Birdman would bet $10,000 on games of 'Madden' and let the computer play

Back when I was in college, my roommate Wes Copeland and I would skip class and spend two hours drafting Madden teams to play a single video game, of which we would bet a $1. We were like a poor man's version of the Duke Brothers (only out of necessity).
T-Pain would not describe Wes and I as "ballin,'" which is how he described the Madden video game battles between Lil Wayne and Birdman in the studio.
While playing some kind of first-player game and filming himself playing and talking on video (this is something people do in 2016!), T-Pain recalled this delightful anecdote (watch him do so, with potentially NSFW-ish language, at TMZ):
When I used to be in the studio with Lil Wayne all the time and Birdman ... Lil Wayne and Birdman would bet money, Lil' Wayne and Birdman would bet $10,000 a game on Madden and they would just let the computer play each other. They would bet a team that they picked would beat the team the other guy picked. And they didn't play the game, they just let the computer play each other. And they would just bet $10,000 on that game.
And I thought that was the most ballin-ish s-- I had ever seen in my life. I never got in on the bets because, you know, I'm not an idiot. So I didn't want to spend all my money.
That is BALLIN' as all get out and also INSANE. So T-Pain, provided the details of the story are accurate, is indeed spot on here.
Even EA Sports thinks you should probably not dabble in such dollar amounts.
We do not recommend betting $10K on CPU-simulated Madden games... even if you have money to blow.

If you really want to do some beasty ratings, tell these dudes to get back in the studio and start filming these bets and putting them on the internet.
