I think I just found a huge hole in Back to the Future

Biff winning the bets changes history so the outcomes of the games would change. Or would the almanac change to reflect the new winners?

He beats once and bets big, 100 to 1 shot.

How would his bets affect the outcomes?

What possible impact could some rando making some smart bets have on the player's on field performance?

He made his first million betting on a horse race. He obviously has much more than a million and I think they even talk about him being the "luckiest man alive" based on his wins.

Because time travel is not real and BTTF is a movie and not a film.

Probably that. Marty's pic changed and so did Doc's newspaper in 3.

Does all of his money come from bets?

Didn't he own a casino?

A high profile story of a local boy made good pushes whatever was in the news that day to the back page. People read this, the thoughts they have throughout the day are altered. Business deals are affected. Economies take a different course.

Student athletes make different decisions on what schools to play for.

Horse breeders make different decisions on what horses to stud.

Companies make different decisions on what race cars to sponsor.

The change would be barely noticeable at first, but given a year, five or ten, you're living in a totally alternate reality. Microsoft is never founded. Tom Brady plays for the Raiders. A plane misses the north tower and crashes into the Hudson.

Also why didn't Marty go to the future to get another hover conversion done before going back to 1885? I know at one point Doc says that it will never fly again but is that supposed to be the explanation?

The sports almanac keeps correct record of every American highschool game nationwide?

That's such an enormous stretch. Him making those bets would hardly have an effect that rippled outside his own community.

So, exactly what happens since the 1985 they go back to is completely changed?

The biggest oversight: Why is the hoverboard designed for mongo footers?

Except that can't actually literally happen and is just a thought exercise.
