Talk about having some skin in the game.
TODAY co-anchors Savannah Guthrie and Craig Melvin settled a bet on Jan. 27 after Savannah’s Philadelphia Eagles trounced Craig’s Washington Commanders in the NFC championship game on Jan. 26 to advance to the Super Bowl.
The pair made a bet last week that their respective team would win the game, and the loser had to wear a temporary tattoo of the other’s face in a prominent position for a week. So, Craig happily obliged.
Carson Daly did the honors, applying the ink on the back of Craig’s neck. The tat was a picture of Savannah wearing an Eagles hat, with the team’s logo superimposed over it.
“I haven’t even seen the picture,” said Craig, who was also a gifted a jersey from Savannah of Eagles star running back Saquon Barkley.
“Let this be a lesson. Don’t gamble,” Craig added.
Viewers helped determine what the loser would have to do, thanks to a fan vote choosing whether Savannah or Craig would get the tattoo, drink from a shoe — aka “do a shoey” — or wear a sign for a day in the New York City subway that says, “Ask me about the bet I lost.”
The Kansas City Chiefs defeated the Buffalo Bills to win the AFC championship game and advance to play the Eagles in Super Bowl 59 on Feb. 9 in New Orleans. The Eagles will be seeking a measure of revenge in that game, since the Chiefs toppled them, 38-35, in Super Bowl 57 in 2023.
