Harvard University Shutsdown Nobel Prize Economics Betting Pool

The establishment prudes at Harvard won't even allow economists to have a little fun. The following notice now appears on the site that once ran the Nobel Prize Economics Betting Pool:

Unfortunately, we have been advised by Harvard University to immediately shut down the Nobel pool due to legal reasons, and we have decided to comply with this request. We will fully reimburse the money of all participants, and we apologize for any inconvenience this creates for you. All participants will be contacted by email.
