A Democratic senator from New York tried to coax a fellow Democrat from New Hampshire into a Super Bowl bet on Tuesday.
 
Sen. Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) tweeted his suggestion: “#SuperBowl bet: when @Giants beat @Patriots, @SenatorShaheen will buy every Senator a NY craft brew. Go Giants!”
 
“We'll see,” Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.) tweeted in response. No telling whether her reluctance is over making the wager or Schumer's choice of beer.
 
Democratic Sens. John Kerry (Mass.) and Kirsten Gillibrand (N.Y.) also made a friendly wager over their Super Bowl picks last week, staking New England clam chowder against New York cheesecake.

The New England Patriots will play the New York Giants in the Super Bowl on Feb. 5.
