Jim "Mattress Mack" McIngvale is a man of his word.

Back in May, the owner of Houston's Gallery Furniture pledged to refund customers who paid at least $3,000 for mattresses and beds if the Astros won the World Series. After the team's victory on Wednesday, [ESPN reports](http://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/21258617/gallery-furniture-owner-mattress-mac-jim-mcingvale-give-houston-astros-fans-10-million-rebates), the businessman is making good on his promise, paying out more than $10 million in rebates.

"I'm happy for this great city and for the Astros," McIngvale told ESPN.

The charitable furniture titan, who has paid out some $12 million as a result of similar stunts in the past, says the promotion attracted enough customers that Gallery Furniture still made money. He also softened the blow by making some big bets — totaling more than $1 million, according to the ESPN — on the Astros taking the title.

McIngvale also [made headlines](http://time.com/4922108/hurricane-harvey-mattress-mack-houston/?xid=homepage) in the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey, when he used several Gallery Furniture locations to [shelter people displaced by the storm](https://time.com/4919017/gallery-furniture-houston-harvey-hurricane-shelter/). He did the same for New Orleans residents fleeing Hurricane Katrina in 2005.
