For serious bettors, the Super Bowl is one of the biggest games of the year, with many setting aside a budget solely to be used for this one game. MyBookie Sportsbook | NFL Super Bowl Gatorade Shower Props Expert Analysis Chiefs vs 49ers

The fact that this is one of the most heavily wagered games in professional sports tells you that it’s not just the serious bettors who will be laying out money this coming Sunday. Even the most casual fans of the NFL will open up their wallets to get in on the action, with many of those people looking at the numerous pro bets that are available. NFL Prop bets run the gamut from in-game stats, such as player performance to rather odd wagers, such as the length of the National Anthem and the color of the Gatorade showered on the winning coach. It is that latter prop bet that we are going to discuss here.

There are arguments about when the Gatorade shower begam, but most believe that it was when the New York Giants beat the Denver Broncos in 1986. That dunk seemed to capture the imagination of the sports betting public and it soon became a staple wager once the Super Bowl rolled around. The question now is how to wager on the potential outcome of the Gatorade Shower.

Colors in Recent Years

If we go back to the 2013 season and start there, we see that there are 9 times when we got to see a shower. There were a couple of Super Bowls where it didn’t happen, so setting those aside, let’s look at the other 9. Blue was the most common color of Gatorade during that stretch, with that shade being used 4 times. Orange is a close 2nd with 3 dunks, with yellow and purple rounding out the other two spots.

Now, given that the Chiefs are in the big game this weekend and have had a history of Gatorade showers, we can look at what colors they have gone with. Last year, it was purple that was the color of choice, which came as a surprise to many. They went with blue in their other championship win during this stretch. Their choice of purple Gatorade last year was a surprise, as it was listed at odds of +750 in the lead up to the game.

The Current Odds for The Super Bowl 58 Gatorade Shower

The odds are out for the Gatorade Shower, but be aware that these might change in the lead up to the game, but these are the colors that are on the board as of now:

Purple: +225
Blue: +275
Yellow: +450
Green: +450
Red: +500
Orange: +500
Clear: +1000

Now, as we have seen with the Chiefs, they have not used the same color in their championship wins. Will they stick with purple, which they went with last season, or will we see them change it up? As for the 49ers, they are listed as the home team for this game and will wear their red jerseys, so might they be tempted to go with red as the Gatorade color of choice?

At the end of the day, this is an absolute crap shoot, as I am sure neither team is really that focused on the color of their sports drink or the betting surrounding it. If I was to make a pick here, I would go with RED.
