Royal Wedding: Place your bets

If the royal wedding wasn’t already captivating enough, it appears as if many Britons are looking to make things “interesting.”

British bookmakers are reporting an influx in wagers, according to the Associated Press, on bets such as how long will Kate Middleton make Prince William wait at the altar and what color Queen Elizabeth II will wear. Some are expecting the nuptials to bring in more than 1 billion pounds ($1.6 million) in gambling activities. With most of the action to come down within the 24 hours leading up to the ceremony, that number definitely has the possibility to go up. 

And for those looking even further down the line, some places are already taking bets on what William and Kate will name their children.
