Sølve SundsbøIf you’re the type who watches the Super Bowl just for the commercials and halftime show, then you probably aren’t betting on stuff like which team will win, and by how many points. However, you can bet on stuff you DO care about, like whether or not Pennsylvania native Pink will wear an Eagles jersey, which celebrity guest Justin Timberlake will welcome to the stage, or whether or not JT will honor the fact that he’s in Minneapolis by singing a Prince song.
These are what are known as “prop bets” — bets that are connected to specific, individual events in the game, like whether the coin toss will come up heads or tails. Some betting sites offer some pretty ridiculous bets every year, and this year is no exception. SportsBettingDime.com has a roundup of the various prop bets…solely for your amusement, of course:
