King County Sheriff John Urquhart has made a friendly wager on Super Bowl XLIX with Sheriff Steven W. Tompkins of the Suffolk County Sheriff’s Department in Boston.
If the New England Patriots lose, Tompkins will send one dozen lobster tail pastries from Luberto’s Bakery in Revere, Mass. to the King County Courthouse.In return, Urquhart wagered a selection of cupcakes from Seattle’s own Cupcake Royale, along with made-in-Seattle Sea-Salt Truffles from Fran’s Chocolates.
“The Suffolk County Sheriff’s Department and the New England Patriots may have a strong history, but the Seahawks and the 12th Man have destiny on their side,” Urquhart said in a press release. “No fan of the Seahawks will ever lose faith in our team’s ability to win the big game.”
