You won’t believe what people are betting on ahead of the Super Bowl
The Super Bowl is the pinnacle of the NFL season, and it’s not just for the players and coaches involved in the game. It’s also the last chance for die-hard and casual betters to put some money down on literally anything having to do with the Super Bowl. We’ll look at some of the stranger prop bets people can make on the big game.
It might not be welcomed during any other game of the NFL season, but coaches tend to embrace being soaked in Gatorade after winning the championship. The magical moment is something that bettors keep a close eye on as well.
According to BetMGM, orange was the color of Gatorade dumped on the winning coach most often during the last 24 Super Bowls. Fans can bet whether orange will be used again, or whether it will be purple, yellow/green, red/pink, blue. There is also an option to wager on clear Gatorade or water being used, and fans can bet on there not being a Gatorade bath at all.

When teams win the Super Bowl, a wave of emotion can hit players and coaches. Their journey to the top is now complete, and they’ll often look back on who helped them get there. Super Bowl MVP’s usually get the chance to give thanks most publicly, and that’s what the betting public will be interested in.
Fans can bet on whom the MVP will thank first. Will it be God/a religious figure, teammates, family, fans, coaches or the organization? According to Sports Illustrated, the most likely outcome is that the Super Bowl MVP thanks the heavens before mentioning anyone else.
Regardless of a viewer’s feelings on the United States, the singing of the national anthem at the Super Bowl is always a special moment. It can become even more special if someone can win money on the Star Spangled Banner.
Jon Batiste will sing the anthem at Super Bowl 59, and people can take their best guesses at how long his rendition will last. According to OddsShark, people are using Batiste’s national anthem performance at the 2017 NBA All-Star game as a guide for how long he will take this time around.
There’s nothing more random or unpredictable than a coin toss, which takes place before the start of every NFL game. The toss is magnified during the Super Bowl, and there’s significant interest in the result.
According to Bleacher Nation, tails has come up 30 times during the prior 58 Super Bowls, with heads coming up the remaining 28 times. However, tails has the recent momentum, as it has come up in five of the last six coin tosses.

For those who may not be that interested in the game itself, the Super Bowl halftime show is the main attraction. It could also be the centerpiece of a betting strategy for someone, as they analyze Kendrick Lamar’s possible options for the big stage.
According to Fox Sports, people can bet on which song Kendrick performs first, which he performs last, how many songs he performs, and which celebrity guest might join him on stage. Lamar’s 'Not Like Us' has the best chance of coming on first or last, according to Fox Sports’ piece.
The Super Bowl has provided NFL fans with memories that will last a lifetime. However, there is interest in whether a certain couple will lock things down after the Super Bowl ends.
The New York Post’s Erich Richter took a closer look into the betting market surrounding the possibility Travis Kelce proposes to Taylor Swift. There are odds on FanDuel Sportsbook in Canada giving Kelce an eleven percent chance of proposing to Swift. Of course, the Kansas City Chiefs need to win the game in order for this to happen, one would think.
As if Taylor Swift’s love life wasn’t enough to bet on, fans can also bet on her emerging friendship with WNBA star Caitlin Clark.
Caitlin Clark is a huge Chiefs fan, and a near lock to be in New Orleans for the big game. Athlon Sports and others have covered the likelihood that Clark sits next to Swift during the game, just as the pair did for the Chiefs’ first playoff game this season against the Houston Texans.
Fans watching the Super Bowl at home might be inclined to stay on their couches even during breaks. Super Bowl commercials cost companies between $7 and $8 million this year, according to USA Today, and are analyzed for their effectiveness and creativity.
Of course, fans can wager on which brand will have the first commercial of the game. According to Bleacher Nation, Doritos is most likely to have the first commercial, followed by Bud Light, Pepsi, Draftkings/FanDuel, and Apple.
