Super Bowl National Anthem Prediction

Jon Batiste will be singing the national anthem in his hometown, which could play a factor when we breakdown how long he will go. A star always likes to put on for their city, and being a musician from New Orleans is an even bigger deal than most places.

However, even if Batiste extends his notes and adds a little flair, it won't be enough to make up the gap in his previous performances. In 2017 at the NBA All-Star Game, he sang for just 89 seconds, and then for 106 seconds later that year at the U.S. Open. Somehow adding almost 20 more seconds to his career long is unlikely.

Meanwhile, the public is still piling on the over. They are going off of historical data on that one, with eight of the last 12 singers going over the two-minute timeline. 65% of the public bet is on the over, and the public does love an over, even with these prior performance stats circulating out there. We're going to buck that trending bet and roll with the under 122.5 seconds, Batiste will make it a show, but it won't extend as long as some think. Let's trust the data here.

National Anthem Side Bets

You can also bet on how long Batiste will hold his last "Brave" note at over/under 4.5 seconds, whether or not he will perform on a piano (-450), and even if a player or coach will cry during the National Anthem at -520 for Yes. Nick Sirianni famously cried in the previous Super Bowl between these two teams, so you can bet that the camera will be panning to him tonight.
