At a time when everyone is obsessed with removing risk from the world, FanDuel Sportsbook has found the one eccentric sports fan who’s intent on putting it back in.

In advance of the Super Bowl, FanDuel is inviting sports enthusiasts to make a risk-free first bet of up to $500.

To promote this offer, FanDuel has partnered with BBH New York to create a campaign that stars a user who has intentionally replaced the risk that FanDuel has removed from betting on the Big Game, by filling his big game party with exciting dangers – ranging from trip hazards to jerry-rigged electrical outlets and poisonous reptiles. “If FanDuel is going to take risk out of the world, it’s on me to add it back,” he says to the dismay of his party guests.

Running on TV, digital and social up through the big game on Feb. 2, the work continues the quirky, self-aware humor of previous FanDuel campaigns developed with creative partner BBH New York.

The TV spots will run on most major TV channels in the four Sportsbook states – New Jersey, Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Indiana.
