I think Australia could be worth a bet but the odds are not that great.I don't really understand how Australia qualify in the Eurovision but Israel are also there and I think they won it before. There does seem to be a left leaning political bias in recent years and the odds for Britain at 41-1 are terrible I wouldn't bet on GB even if the odds were 1041-1......GB entry by Electro Velvet says it all.
None of the country bets I made yesterday made it through so I think I won't risk anything on the second semi-final nor on the final. Besides almost every song here is awful as hell.

I have to say that since the night many years ago spent drinking Guinness in a pub in a nearby town, watching the Eurovision song contest on a huge TV, that I don't think I have watched it since. It is generally a show that promotes the country it is in and is seen as a lift for friendly countries and not for talent. I won't be watching or betting.

LoL, I could imagine how underwhelmed you were when you went there to drink and hangout and feel better yet they showed this on their TV instead some casual sports game...

"rise like a penis" raised the bar really high (if bearded IT'S is your thing), so others have a lot of catching up to do. i am not a huge eurovision fan because folk heros from north korea with the song "i love my free and democratic country" were not allowed to enter the contest.

Haven't the songs always been awful?For some reason it does have a big following in the UK.The BBC have continued to broadcast it at a cost,they say less than £1/2 million but it did get around 7.5 million viewers a couple of years ago. It seems some money is going on the Serbian entry and the odds were 33-1,not sure if it is now but it may not be for long.

Nothing is not awful about this show, that's why the europian media following it so closely. Lowest common denominator or something.
