Kenneth Le
The action will be on the field Sunday at the Super Bowl, but the betting action will be everywhere. First touchdown, sure, but also Gatorade baths and song lengths and just about every other betting permutation a bettor might want to get action on. Per ESPN, a record $50.4 million adults in the United States are expected to combine to be approximately $16 billion on Super Bowl LVII. Even if you’re only watching the game for the surroundings, there’s something there for you.
Our FTN staff selected their favorite novelty props for Super Bowl LVII. Here are the FTN staff picks for some of the most fun majors surrounding Sunday’s Super Bowl extravaganza.

Color of Rihanna’s First Outfit
Black +115; Gold +525; Silver/Grey +600; White +600; Green +650; Purple/Pink +800; Red +800; Brown +1000; Yellow +1000; Blue +1200; Orange +1800
The Pick: Green
Green is her favorite color. – Marshall Gershon
How Many Times Will Tom Brady Be Mentioned During the Super Bowl?
Over 1.5, -165; Under 1.5, +125
The Pick: Over
The game is on FOX and Brady has a massive deal with them as a broadcaster. – Alex Blickle
The Pick: Under
I doubt Greg Olsen will want to spend maybe his only Super Bowl call talking about his likely replacement (who likely will be much worse as an analyst). – Scott Spratt
How Long Will It Take Chris Stapleton to Sing the National Anthem?
Over 2:05, -145; Under 2:05, +110
The Pick: Over
Has an unbelievable voice. Would be a disservice if he didn’t dramatically carry out a few notes. Plus, his covers tend to go longer than the original songs. – Nick Makowitz
Who Will Be Shown First During the National Anthem?
Patrick Mahomes -135; Jalen Hurts +105
The Pick: Patrick Mahomes
The NFL is a business, you always promote your biggest stars first. – Benny Ricciardi
Who Will Be Shown First During the National Anthem?
Travis Kelce -185; A.J. Brown +140
The Pick: Travis Kelce
NFL will play up the brother narrative, where can I get odds that both brothers are shown before Brown? – Zac Graham
Did you hear there are brothers playing in this game? – Chris Meaney
KC Chiefs to Win Coin Toss and Win the Game
Yes 300; No -400
The Pick: Yes
I’ll take 3 to 1 on the team I think wins the game outright. – Mike Randle
Jersey Number of 1st TD Scorer
Over 11.5, +105; Under 11.5, -130
The Pick: Over
Patrick Mahomes running or Travis Kelce receiving after aggressive Andy Reid picks to receive and has a great first drive script. – Ryan Aske
Kelce has 8 TDs in his last nine playoff games and 14 in his last 12. He has at least one in five straight playoff games. We also get Dallas Goedert, all three Philadelphia running backs, Mahomes and Quez Watkins. Could see some shots down the field with Watkins. – Chris Meaney
Team to Make First Coach’s Challenge
Chiefs -120; Eagles 100
The Pick: Chiefs
Andy Reid can’t help himself. He’s always giddy to throw that red flag. – Michael Govier
Halftime Show First Song
Diamonds +150; Don’t Stop The Music +250; Lift Me Up +550; What’s My Name +600; This Is What You Came For +700; Umbrella +800; Stay +900; We Found Love +1000; Where Have You Been +1200; Needed Me +1600; Higher +1800; Rude Boy +1800; Work +1800; Hate That I Love You +2200; Unfaithful +2500
The Pick: “We Found Love”
What better way to kick off the Super Bowl halftime show than the upbeat “We Found Love”? FanDuel also lists Calvin Harris as -200 to appear during the halftime show and he’s featured on this song so there might be value at this number. Full disclosure, I’m biased as this is my favorite Rihanna song, though she has a lot of good ones. – Nick Shlain
The Pick: “Where Have You Been?”
This is way tougher than it needed to be. Let’s be clear about one thing, Rihanna has a lot of bangers and many of them would be great opening songs to get the crowd fired up. There’s no value on “Don’t Stop the Music,” but that’s one of her first songs so I could see it. “This Is What You Came For” isn’t her song, it’s Calvin Harris’ jam. We could see CH there at some point though. I’m going with “Where Have You Been.” It fits and it bangs off the hop. – Chris Meaney
Color First Gatorade Poured on Winning Head Coach
Orange +350; Blue +400; Yellow/Green +400; Red/Pink +450; Clear/Water +500; Purple +750; None +1000
The Pick: Yellow/Green
It was green when the Eagles won in 2017. It was Green when the Eagles won the NFC Championship game and when they clinched the title. – Chris Meaney
The Pick: Red/Pink
Marketing 101. Gatorade Shower is usually meant to match the winning teams primary color, and I like the Chiefs in this one. – Josh Gross
