The odds of Leicester City winning the Premier League at the start of the 2015/16 football season were 5000:1. This means that gamblers thought the following things were more likely to happen:-2,500:1 - David Moyes to be an X Factor judge2,500:1 - Arsenal would sack Arsene Wenger and install Piers Morgan as boss2,000:1 - Kim Kardashian will become US President by 20201,000:1 - Sir Alex Ferguson would win Strictly Come Dancing1,000:1 - Hugh Hefner would admit he's a virgin1,000:1 - Robbie Savage will be named the next James Bond1,000:1 - Bono will become the next Pope500:1 - Simon Cowell will become the next Prime Minister of the UK500:1 - Andy Murray would name his first born Novak
You might need to look up some of these names to see how unlikely they are, apart from Kim Kardasian: As for Simon Cowell - well look at Trump - I don't see why this couldn't happen.)
Update - The people of Leicester must be very, very happy today.
