Weird World Cup bets: Will Luis Suarez bite again?

Suarez bit in 2010. Then in 2013. At the 2014 World Cup, it seemed that the Uruguay striker had learned his lesson and calmed down. Bookmakers even offered 175 to 1 if he was to bite again. Then he bit Italy’s Giorgio Chiellini, earning a small fortune for over 150 bettors who trusted his unconventional way of earning respect on the field.
