  • The 2019 Super Bowl has plenty of betting options outside of the actual game play
  • Find your best odds for all pregame, halftime show, broadcast, and post-game props

Want to bet on Super Bowl 53 but have absolutely no interest in the actual game play? Then you have come to the right place.

We’ve compiled a whole whack of our favorite non-football related props for the big game on February 3. These prop bets will keep you glued to the game all the way from the anthem, to halftime, to the post game speeches, and even the commercials in between.

So if you have to go the bathroom, I guess, go during the play?

It’s a coin toss. Just trust your instincts here.

Which Coach Will be Shown First During Anthem?

Who Will Be Shown First During the Anthem Sportsbook 1 Odds Sportsbook 2 Odds
Bill Belichick -130 N/A
Sean McVay -110 N/A

Anthems historically go over, and only one of the last 11 renditions has lasted less than 1:47. Nick Foles and Belichick were shown first last year, so it’s unlikely both winning bets will come from the same team.

How Many Times is Giselle Bundchen Shown During the Broadcast? Sportsbook 1 Odds Sportsbook 2 Odds
OVER 1.5 (+150) N/A
UNDER 1.5 (-200) N/A

For some of these props, it will help if you have an expectation for how the game will play out.

If the Patriots are falling behind by a lot, we’ll probably see some cussin’ Tom and angry Giselle.

As for Tony’s predictions, I’m not gonna go against a guy with the (pretty terrible) nickname of Romostradamus.

Avocados from Mexico N/A -120

Doritos has always been king of Super Bowl commercials when it comes to the chip industry and the red bag is usually the go to.

Similarly, if you’ve watched football at all this year, you would know that Sunday’s are pretty much a 12-hour Bud Light commercial.

“Sweet Victory” Performed as SpongeBob Tribute?

Will Maroon 5 Perform “Sweet Victory” at Halftime? Sportsbook 1 Odds Sportsbook 2 Odds
YES N/A -220
NO N/A +155

The first song has been broken down by someone with far more Maroon 5 knowledge than I, which means they know like three songs and don’t always get them confused with Train.

But with a few songs outside the group’s discography already favored to be performed, we could have a scenario where the OVER total songs hits but the OVER for Maroon 5 songs doesn’t.
