Did she get to see the pizza dish fishie?

That Embarcadero location for it seems to be more appropriate than they might have planned.

Storm surge sent high waves over coastal jetties in Pacifica and Half Moon Bay, and over the walkways at Pier 14 in San Francisco's Embarcadero, drenching onlookers.

Jesus Christ did not return to Earth in 2025, causing bettors on the prediction market Polymarket who wagered "No" to profit, while those who bet "Yes" lost their stakes, leading to a successful, albeit unusual, bet on the platform. This event was part of a larger trend of users betting on various strange or abstract outcomes, with significant money placed on the Second Coming, some seeing it as a profitable arbitrage opportunity or simply a reflection of low probability.

What Happened on Polymarket?
The Bet: A market existed for "Will Jesus Christ Return in 2025?" with users buying shares for "Yes" or "No".

The Outcome: Since Jesus did not return by December 31, 2025, the "No" shares resolved as correct, paying out profits to those who bet against the return.

The Profit: The "No" bettors saw a significant return, even outperforming traditional investments like U.S. Treasury bills for the year, notes Bloomberg Law News.
