Since the Super Bowl is the most widely bet on sporting event in the United States, the list of prop bets offered by sportsbooks is typically larger than usual for the big game and can include bets on the outcome of the coin toss and the color of the sport. The winning coach’s drink, the duration of the halftime show, among other “weird” items.
