Jerelyn N.
You enjoy going to the horse-racing track on Sundays and have been doing so for the past 10 years. You've gotten to know some of the other regulars there. One Sunday you are complaining to a friend there that you'd like to place a bet on a specific horse to win, but the track is offering such low odds. Your friend laughs at your choice and offers to take a $100 bet himself and give you much better odds. You ask him to repeat his offer and you record a video on your cell phone of him making the offer. You also record your acceptance. Your horse wins. You think your friend owes you $500, but he doesn't pay you the following Sunday or even mention the bet or race. If you file a lawsuit, will you be able to get the court to enforce your wager and make your friend pay you?
