Hey, it’s no Senate confirmation vote, but Gov. Charlie Baker is really upping his wager on the Patriots winning Sunday.
In addition to “lucky” Boston cream pie cupcakes from a Springfield bakery and Legal Seafood’s clam chowder — which proved successful in Baker’s previous playoff bets with the governors of Texas and Pennsylvania, respectively — the Massachusetts governor is putting local cider doughnuts on the line in a Super Bowl bet with Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal.
“No offense to @bcfootball icon Matty Ice, but I’ve got @SmolakFarms cider doughnuts on the [goat emoji] Tom Brady,” Baker tweeted Wednesday at his peer in the Peach State.
