Last month, actors Chris Evans (best known as Captain America in the Marvel films) and Chris Pratt (who played Star-Lord in last summer’s blockbuster Guardians of the Galaxy) made a bet on the Super Bowl.
It all started on January 19, when Evans taunted Pratt, once it became clear their favorite teams would be battling in the Big Game…
Well, well, well @prattprattpratt, looks like our teams are going into battle. For the next 2 weeks, you are not my friend, you are my enemy
— Chris Evans (@ChrisEvans) January 19, 2015
Pratt, not one to back down, trash talked to Evans…
@ChrisEvans We both know there's only one Captain America and his name is Russell Wilson. #SuperBowlBound #LOB #Repeat

Evans responded…
@prattprattpratt them's fightin words. Stakes? #whatisaseahawkanyway #somethingtombradyhunts
— Chris Evans (@ChrisEvans) January 19, 2015
A bet? Yup, Pratt issued this challenge…
@ChrisEvans OK. Seahawks win you fly yourself to Seattle, visit @seattlechildren hospital as Captain America, waving the 12th man flag.
— chris pratt (@prattprattpratt) January 21, 2015
To which Evans replied…
@prattprattpratt I accept. And when the Patriots humiliate your seachickens, I expect Star-Lord to arrive at @chris_haven in a Brady jersey

Over the course of the last few weeks since, there has been numerous taunts and trash talking done online. The two even rallied fans to donate to the respective charities to prove which actor they backed in this challenge.
Then last night, the two met up to watch the Super Bowl live in the stadium. Pratt was with his wife, actress Anna Farris (also a Seahawks fan), and I believe the gentleman with Evans is his brother.

As you may know by now, the Patriots won the Super Bowl, which means that Chris Pratt would have to show up at Evan’s Christopher’s Haven charity (which provides supportive housing for families whose children are receiving outpatient pediatric cancer treatments in Boston, MA) dressed as Star-Lord wearing a Tom Brady Patriots jersey.
Pratt was the first to accept the defeat…
Congrats to the world champions @patriots you were the better team tonight. I will be visiting @chris_haven as Starlord. #twitterbowl
— chris pratt (@prattprattpratt) February 2, 2015
Then Evans sent out the following series of tweets after the game…
Thank you to @prattprattpratt for being a good sport. I'll be there with you at @chris_haven, and don't worry @seattlechildren, we'll be
— Chris Evans (@ChrisEvans) February 2, 2015
coming there too! And lastly, I don't think anyone can ever doubt the mental toughness of Tom Brady. Tough couple weeks, but he showed why
— Chris Evans (@ChrisEvans) February 2, 2015
he's the greatest of all time. #PSIdonthearyounow #anyballanytime
— Chris Evans (@ChrisEvans) February 2, 2015
Yup, even though he won, Chris Evans is still showing up to support Pratt’s charity, Seattle Children’s Hospital. Because both men are a class act, that means it’s the children fighting horrible diseases in Boston and Seattle who are the real winners of this bet.
