It’s always a lot of fun betting on some of the more weird and wacky prop bets that sportsbooks offer for the Super Bowl. Every year it seems like the bookies try to outdo each other with more off-the-wall prop bets. I think these type of bets add an extra layer of excitement outside of the actual football game and in certain cases they can even provide some good value as a wager.
Below I will look at a few of the novelty Super Bowl prop bets offered by one of our recommended sportsbooks that has a solid selection of prop betting options for Super Bowl 60. I’ll give my pick for some of the props, but I do not advise placing a bet based on my picks because I do not have any inside information on any of these props. This article is instead meant to show you some of the more interesting non-game related bets you can make on the 2026 Super Bowl.

Length of National Anthem
- Over 119.5 seconds 1.83
- Under 119.5 seconds 1.91
To start off the broadcast Charlie Puth will be singing the USA National Anthem. The over/under is set at 1 minute, 59.5 seconds, which is in line with typical Super Bowl anthem lengths which are generally around 2 minutes long. Three years ago the total was 1 minute 59.5 seconds and Chris Stapleton went over (2:01), and then last year the total was once again 1 minute 59.5 seconds and Jon Batiste also went over (2:00).
I have not seen any Charlie Puth National Anthem performances, but based on the past five Super Bowl National Anthem’s hitting the over, and the typical length seeming to be slightly over two minutes, I would take the over on this prop.
Half Time Show – Bad Bunny Number of Songs
The Half-Time show will be headlined by Bad Bunny this year. You can bet on how many songs Bad Bunny will perform at the half-time show. The over/under is set at 11.5 songs.
- Over 11.5 songs 2.00
- Under 11.5 songs 1.83
I like the under here. I’ve seen other sportsbooks with the total set at 8.5 or 9.5 songs, so I think the smart bet is under 11.5. That said, Bad Bunny does have a huge catalogue of songs to choose between.
Coin Toss
The coin toss is one of the most popular bets every Super Bowl. It doesn’t get much more novelty than betting on the flip of a coin.
SportsInteraction.com is taking coin toss bets with reduced vig for this years Super Bowl:
Winning Coach Gatorade Shower
Last year Nick Sirianni was doused with a yellow gatorade shower. The odds for a yellow gatorade shower were very short last year indicating that there may have been a potential leak as to the color of the gatorade for the Eagles (or potentially both teams). The previous two years Andy Reid was hit with purple gatorade for the Chiefs back-to-back victories. The last time the Patriots won the Super Bowl (2019) the gatorade was blue, and the last time the Seahawks won (2014) the gatorade was orange.
Here are the odds for this years Gatorade shower colour from SportsInteraction.com (odds taken February 5th):
I personally like taking the water/clear bet on this prop because I just don’t like the thought of the coaches having to go through all of the on field interviews and trophy presentation covered in a sticky liquid. At least if it’s water (clear) the coach is just wet, not wet and sticky. That said, the gatorade shower has not been clear in over 10 years, so it’s probably not a great bet.
I do suggest keeping your eyes open on Twitter or in fan forums, because sometimes this information is known prior to the game.
As you can see there are some pretty outrageous prop bets available for the Super Bowl. You can find all of these betting markets (and likely more closer to kick-off) by selecting ‘Novelty Props’ once on the Seahawks vs Patriots odds page at SportsInteraction.com.

Hows it going Niko
So I’ve been wagering on The Sports Betting Interaction as you mentioned above. ( i’m probably with them because you mentioned them some years back). Anyway, I find a limited amount of parlay bets available under player props. Like we can’t bet on an over under passing AND a rushing yards wager plus another like first td scored etc. So odds always stay low. Like the examples you give above. Can I put all those on one card? If not, then 10 bucks gets us back a measly, 19.50 rather than x3 etc.
Hey Derek,
You won’t be able to parlay a lot of the player props because the bets can be correlated. For example, if Mahomes passes for over 329.5 yards there’s a good chance he also throws for more than 28.5 completions. Because some props can be correlated I think SIA just doesn’t allow parlays for the majority of their Super Bowl props.
