Default Patrik Laine Scores 5 goals on 5 shots!

And somebody won a million bucks from Safeway too!

Crazy, still lots of time left in third to get another maybe....

Jets lead 7-4 against Blues.

That actually wouldn't surprise me, though the winners name was tweeted...just not by Safeway.

Contests like this are insured. The odds are so bad that the payments make sense. Just like hole in one insurance.

If there is a win they will pay.

Absolutely correct, i sponsor a $10,000 hole in one every year, actually paid it out this summer. I was very happy to present the check and it was good for business. $180 i spent on the insurance.

I have him in one of my pools, he's been a dud up until these past few weeks. He has been a bit of a slow starter last few seasons, now if he can keep it up!
