3 minutesWhat is the Kick of Destiny Super Bowl?
The Kick of Destiny Super Bowl promotion is the very best on the market, as it rewards FanDuel users with bonus bets during the Big Game.
Unlike last year, where Rob Gronkowski had to make the kick to unlock your bonus bets, you are this time tasked with predicting the outcome. Yes, that's right... The power is in your hands, as America Picks, Gronk Kicks ahead of Kansas vs. San Francisco.
The 2023 Kick of Destiny saw Gronk miss his field goal, but to celebrate the Big Game, FanDuel still gave all eligible users bonus bets. To be an eligible user last year, you needed to opt-in to the promotion and place a $5+ bet on the game. That is not the case this time.
The Kick of Destiny Super Bowl promotion is different this year, as you just need to enter the game, and then make your free prediction. If you correctly predict whether Gronk makes or misses, you will win your share of the $10 million bonus bets.
So when someone asks you "What is the Kick of Destiny Super Bowl?" you will know exactly what to tell them. It is a free way for FanDuel users to claim bonus bets.
What is the Kick of Destiny 2 and Will Gronk Make the Kick?
The Kick of Destiny 2 is almost exactly the same as last year, apart from the fact it is now free to enter, rather than costing a $5 bet.
Gronk is still going to attempt a 25-yard field goal live from the Big Game, as he attempts his shot at redemption in Las Vegas.
There is going to be a party atmosphere in Sin City, and you can now add an extra layer of excitement by predicting the outcome of the Gronk Field Goal.
Gronk has been training again for this kick, and you would think a 25-yard field goal without the pressure of an NFL game would be easy to make, so will Gronk really miss two years in a row?
Our prediction is that Gronk will make the kick this time around, but if you believe this could be a long-term play from FanDuel, then maybe a miss sets up another date with destiny for the former tight end.
