Carolina Panthers head coach Ron Rivera hasn't always been fond of his nickname, "Riverboat Ron," but for one of the biggest gambling events known to sports, he's ready to have some fun.
Rivera got the nickname for his reputation as a riverboat gambler after displaying a risky style of play-calling early in his career.
