The 10 Most Outrageous Bets You Can Make During The Super Bowl

As the popularity of the Super Bowl continues to grow, the game’s halftime show and advertisers have adapted to appeal to a number of different demographics. The gambling world has also adapted, offering prop bets on almost anything imaginable, from who will win the coin toss to how long it will take Christina Aguilera to sing the National Anthem.

According to Business Insider, which cites a Bill Simmons podcast, prop bets began in 1985 when Las Vegas offered 100/1 odds that William “Refrigerator” Perry—who was used as a fullback on rare occasions— would appear in an offensive play. So many gamblers bet on Perry, the line moved down to 3/1 and when the defensive lineman appeared at fullback, Vegas took a big hit.

Now, 26 years later, you can wager on the National Anthem, half-time show and even place cross-sport prop bets. Below is a list of some of the wackier prop bets available for when the Green Bay Packers play the Pittsburgh Steelers during Super Bowl XLV, according to various gambling and news websites:
