Crazy Super Bowl XLIX Prop Bets Part I

It is that time of the year again. NFL bettors have one last chance to gamble on a game. Many gamblers want to go overboard on the Super Bowl. Sports books know this and that is why they post some of the most ridiculous wagers that you will ever see on a football game.

The most popular Super Bowl prop bets include the coin toss. The lay is usually -105 on heads or tails and which team calls it correctly. From there, the juice on the prop bets goes up, sometimes holding 20% of the pool for the house.

The limits for these prop bets tend to be very low. These types of wagers cannot be made in Nevada as there is no official outcome reported.
