Thursday Night Football's low-scoring affair between the Los Angeles Rams and San Francisco 49ers was a tough watch for most fans, but not all.
For the select few that read the weather report and had the foresight to put a wager on no player scoring a touchdown in the Week 15 opener, it was a night to celebrate.
The Rams pulled out a pivotal 12-6 victory on the back of four field goals in rainy conditions. The Niners added two field goals, and no player reached the end zone.
No touchdown scorer bets were priced anywhere between +8,500 and +40,000 at various sportsbooks.

Circa Sports director of operations Jeffrey Benson shared the amount bet on no touchdown at his sportsbook ...
We wrote 3 total tickets totaling $11 on No TD at a price of 225/1

... but was quick to also point out that Circa was happy to make the trade off to see all anytime touchdown bets miss.
For the uninitiated $11 x 225/1 = $2,475

We won on the market people ?
However, the book offering the longest odds might have been the SuperBook in Nevada.

Rams win 12-6
One bettor at @DKSportsbook bet $100 on No TD at 180-1 and won $18,000
No TD was 200-1 at @BetMGM, 225-1 at @CircaSports and as high as 400-1 at @SuperBookNV.
The lesson here is to always watch the weather forecast and thank your local meterorologist.
