The Super Bowl is one of the biggest sporting events of the year, and everyone looks forward to betting on novelty markets. Here is a selection of the best bets.
The Super Bowl is one of the most exciting betting events of the year thanks to all the novelty markets on offer from UK bookmakers.
Sure, this is a US sport, and "props" are one of the best ways to bet, but while we don't call them prop bets here in the UK, we do still get to enjoy the same markets.

Super Bowl Novelty Betting Markets
There is a wide range of betting markets when it comes to the Super Bowl, and we are here to highlight our favourites.
Super Bowl Coin Toss Odds
Looking for a quick bet on the Super Bowl and one that will be decided before the opening kick? Then you are going to want to check out the ever-popular coin toss betting market.
Many bettors love the Coin Toss market for its simplicity and instant result and we have outlined the odds for this year's coin toss below.
- Heads (49/50)
- Tails (49/50)
Unibet and BetMGM are offering the best odds on this year's Coin Toss, so if you are looking for any sort of edge, you will need to sign up with one of those bookmakers.
Super Bowl Coin Toss Results
Many people believe you have a 50-50 chance of winning a Coin Toss, but that is not the case and this explains why "Tails" has won more often over the years.
Here are the current stats for the Super Bowl Coin Toss:
- Heads (28 times)
- Tails (30 times)
The Super Bowl Coin has landed on "Heads" three times over the last four years, but the last time these two played it landed on "Tails".
Colour of Gatorade Poured on the Winning Coach
Another simple but fun Super Bowl novelty market is the Gatorade Colour market. Every year it is tradition for the winning head coach to be doused in Gatorade at the end of the game, and you can bet on which colour Gatorade is used.
Many people think the colour of each team's jerseys will be a factor when it comes to their Gatorade colour, but this isn't always the case.
Check out the odds for each potential Gatorade Colour below:
- Yellow/Lime or Green (4/7)
- Purple (11/4)
- Red/Pink (6/1)
- Orange (15/2)
- Blue (10/1)
- Water/Clear (33/1)
Yellow/Lime or Green is shortened dramatically in the market, and if the Philadelphia Eagles won, that would make perfect sense, but could "Purple" be the value here?
The Chiefs have poured Purple Gatorade over Andy Reid in each of their past two wins, and with a strong chance of a three-peat today, they may keep the tradition going, for the sake of avoiding superstition.
National Anthem Length Odds - How Long Will Jon Batiste's Anthem Last?
Another market that will be settled before the game kicks off, is the National Anthem Length market. Bettors will have their stopwatches out and will be looking to hit their over/under bet, and we can outline the odds below:
- Under 120.5 Seconds (13/10)
- Over 120.5 Seconds (3/2)
Recently, National Anthem singers have typically hit the over at the Super Bowl, but it's not going to be straightforward to predict this year's rendition. That is because Jon Batiste's past efforts last right around 2 minutes, which is the line.
Super Bowl First Song Odds - Which Song Will Kendrick Lamar Sing First at Half-Time?
Another market Super Bowl bettors like to place a bet on is the Super Bowl Half-Time show, and Kendrick Lamar will be performing in New Orleans tonight.
Here are the odds for Kendrick Lamar's First Song courtesy of Sky Bet:
- Squabble Up (5/4)
- Humble (2/1)
- DNA (5/2)
- TV Off (6/1)
- Not Like Us (15/2)
- m.A.A.d City (8/1)
- King Kunta (8/1)
- United in Grief (8/1)
- Euphoria (12/1)
- Backseat Freestyle (12/1)
- Hey Now (12/1)
- Swimming Pools - Drank (16/1)
- Element (20/1)
- Money Trees (20/1)
- A.D.H.D (20/1)
- Luther (20/1)
- The Heart Part 5 (25/1)
- Like That (25/1)
- Family Ties (25/1)
- Alright (25/1)
- All The Stars (25/1)
- Don't Kill My Vibe (33/1)
- Rigamortus (50/1)
- Duckworth (50/1)
- Savior (66/1)
- Rich Spirit (66/1)
- Mona Lisa (100/1)
Super Bowl Guest Performer Odds - Will Baby Keem, Doechii, or Future Join Kendrick Lamar on Stage in New Orleans?
SZA has already been confirmed as a guest performer at the Super Bowl, but who, if anyone, will be Kendrick Lamar's surprise guest(s) tonight?
Here are the odds for the potential guests for the Half Time Show which are available on Sky Bet:
- Baby Keem (1/2)
- Doechii (8/11)
- Future (5/4)
- Metro Boomin (3/2)
- Jay Rock (15/8)
- Snoop Dogg (5/2)
- Dr Dre (5/2)
- Travis Scott (5/2)
- Lefty Gunplay (7/2)
- Kodak Black (4/1)
- Schoolboy Q (9/2)
- Rihanna (5/1)
- Anderson Paak (6/1)
- Sampha (7/1)
- Taylor Swift (7/1)
- Eminem (9/1)
- Maroon 5 (11/1)
- Beyonce (12/1)
- Jay-Z (20/1)
- U2 (20/1)
- Drake Bulldogs (28/1)
In 2022, Kendrick Lamar joined Dr Dre, Snoop Dogg, 50 Cent, Eminem and Mary J. Blige on the Super Bowl stage, so this isn't the rapper's first time Half-Time performance. It is however the first time he will headline, and if you think there's a possibility he leans on the likes of Dr Dre, Snoop Dogg, or 50 Cent to support him this year, you can get great odds.
The odds suggest that Baby Keem and Doechii are the likeliest candidates for a guest performance tonight, with the former making perfect sense. Baby Keem is Lamar's cousin and collaborated on "Range Brothers," "The Hillbillies" and "Family Ties, so chances are, he will be invited on stage.
Rumours will always persist over Taylor Swift every time she is supporting Travis Kelce, but at 7/1 it doesn't look likely she will be involved.
