U.S. Representative Jeff Duncan got his comeuppance Thursday.
The Republican, who represents South Carolina’s 3rd District, had to make good on a bet he made with a fellow member of the House of Representatives. Duncan and U.S. Rep. Terri A. Sewell wagered on the Clemson vs. Alabama College Football Playoff semifinal game.
On their way to another national championship, the Crimson Tide defeated the Tigers in the Sugar Bowl, and Duncan lost his bet with the Alabama Democrat.
He didn’t have to empty his wallet to pay up, but the Clemson alum who currently represents Clemson in Congress had to swallow his pride.
