Super Bowl 58 offers some truly bizarre prop bets. From predicting the outcome of a coin toss to estimating the duration of Reba McEntire's National Anthem performance, there is no shortage of peculiar bets. People are even speculating whether Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift will get engaged right there on the field. And believe it or not, some are even daring to wager on the possibility of an alien invasion occurring during the highly anticipated game. Yes, these are just some of the unusual bets you can place for Super Bowl 2024.
If you feel the urge to gamble and bet some money this year, you are not the only one. Over 30 states have now legalized gambling in some way, and the total amount of money being wagered is increasing at an unprecedented rate.
The American Gaming Association reported that in 2023, there was a significant growth of 61 percent in the number of American adults participating in betting on the Super Bowl. It was estimated that around 16 billion dollars were wagered on the game. It is predicted that this figure will continue to rise in the current year.
One of the aspects that tends to be amusing to observe are prop bets. We have selected five particularly distinctive ones from Bovada Sportsbook.
The estimated duration of the National Anthem is expected to be around 1 minute and 28 seconds. Sportsbooks worldwide will closely monitor the time it takes for Reba McEntire to sing the Anthem, starting from the moment she begins until she finishes the word "brave." In a previous Super Bowl performance, Alicia Keys took 2 minutes and 36 seconds to sing the Anthem, while Chris Stapleton took 2 minutes and 1 second last year.
The oddsmakers seem to believe that McEntire will have a smooth and effortless performance this year.
Which color will be used to pour on the winning coach of Super Bowl 58? Purple is the favored choice this year with odds of +185, followed closely by red with odds of +260. If you're looking for a more unlikely outcome, the bet on "No liquid will be poured" is available at +2000.
Usher and Taylor Swift are rumored to be performing together during the halftime show, with Swift singing her hit song "Shake it Off." However, there are reports suggesting that Swift has denied these rumors. Nevertheless, some speculate that her denial could be a ploy to surprise everyone. This unexpected collaboration has odds of +25000, meaning that if you bet 10 dollars, you could potentially win 2,500 dollars.
The Kansas City Chiefs emerged victorious in their recent game. Surprisingly, there is speculation that Taylor Swift might join the team on a visit to the White House and publicly support Joe Biden's presidential campaign. This possibility, although unlikely, is given slightly higher odds (+5000) compared to her potential halftime performance during the game.
Aliens have invaded the city of Las Vegas and the outcome of the game is a draw. The player with the highest odds to win is at a staggering +100000.
