Super Bowl 58 National Anthem Prop Bets featuring Reba McEntire

Super Bowl LVII National Anthem Betting Odds

Part of the love of betting on the Super Bowl is that it’s the final NFL game of the year. It’s going to be seven long months before you get to bet on another football game, so you better take advantage.

It’s also a great matchup, making it fun to place a wager. Who doesn’t want to bet on a game between two great quarterbacks, two great coaches, and two teams that have survived 20 weeks of NFL football?

But let’s also be honest. A big part of what we love about Super Bowl betting is the wide variety of proposition bets that you can’t find any other week of the season and the bets begin paying off before the ball is even kicked off.

National Anthem Length

The most known of the Super Bowl novelty prop bets is the over/under on the length of the National Anthem. The singers for the Anthem reads like a who’s-who of American singers, ranging from Pink and Lady Gaga, to Billy Joel, Beyonce, and Luke Bryan.

Because these are all A-lister performers, they all put their own spin on the Anthem. And that generally means that the length of the song also changes. Alicia Keys holds the record for the longest Anthem at 2 minutes and 36 seconds at Super Bowl XLVII. One of the shortest in recent history was Kelly Clarkson at just 1 minute and 34 seconds a year earlier at Super Bowl XLVI.

Country singer Chris Stapleton is the singer for Super Bowl LVII. This is his first Super Bowl National Anthem, and the over/under has been set at 2:02. The over has hit in three of the last four Super Bowls.

Other Top Novelty Props

Right after the Anthem has finished and you have cashed in your winnings on that bet, it’s the coin toss. This wager, as you can probably guess, comes with a 50% chance of hitting. Your wager options are heads or tails.

You can also place a wager on the very first play of the game. Will it be a run or pass? Will it be a completed pass or fall incomplete? Or will it be a sack, which has a distinct possibility with two teams that recorded 125 regular seasons sacks in 2022.

The novelty props continue even when the action on the field pauses. You can wager on which car company will have the first commercial, as well as which brand will be featured in the first beer commercial. And you can wager on a variety of celebrities at the game, which ones will be seen the most on camera, and who will get specifically mentioned by the broadcast team.

And even when the game is over, the proposition bets continue. You can wager on the color of the Gatorade shower that the winning coach will get. When the Chiefs won Super Bowl LIV, the color was orange. When the Eagles won Super Bowl LII, the color was yellow.

The last two champions, the Rams and Buccaneers, dumped blue Gatorade on their head coach.

Super Bowl LV National Anthem Betting Odds

National Anthem Time

Time starts at the moment the first note is sung until the end of the last note until the end of the last note.

• Over 2:03 +100
• Under 2:03 -140

In Super Bowl 54, Demi Lovato belted out the national anthem in 1:49. Prior to that, Gladys Knight finished in 2:01. In 2018, Pink got the job done in 1:52 while Luke Bryan and Lady Gaga finished the previous two anthems in 2:09 and 2:22 respectively.

This year, Jazmine Sullivan and Eric Church will perform a duet edition. Sullivan is a singer-songwriter from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Her biggest hits to date are 2008’s “Need You Bad” and 2010’s “Holding You Down.” She has received 12 Grammy nominations in her career.

Eric Church is a country music singer-songwriter from North Carolina, best know for his hit songs “Give Me Back To My Hometown” (2014), “Springsteen” (2012), “Like A Wrecking Ball” (2015) and “Smoke A Little Smoke” (2010). He is a nine-time Grammy Award nominee.

Sullivan performed the Star-Spangled Banner for the 2016 NHL Stadium Series and lasted just 1:39, but the last time there was a duet singing the anthem (2006) Aretha Franklin and Aaron Neville needed 2:09 to finish. With two singers this year, I like the Over 2:03. Both singers will want to have their voices heard, so expect a fairly lengthy version.

Pick: Over

How long will the word Brave be sung

• Over 6.5 Seconds -155
• Under 6.5 Seconds +115

Analysis: this one is simple. If Jazmine Sullivan sings the final words, it’s going over 6.5 seconds, If Eric Church does it on the solo – or joins Sullivan in unison, I like the Under. Sullivan has got a pair of lungs on her while Church is more of a song-writer in my opinion. If Crouch is smart, he’ll let Sullivan belt it out on the solo!

Pick: Over 6.5 Seconds

Who will sing the first note

• Jazmine Sullivan -140
• Eric Church +120
• Both Together +150

Analysis: Jazmine Sullivan had better be singing the first note on the solo – or I’m gonna’ be pissed. All jokes aside, Sullivan is truly a singer while, again, I think Eric Church is more of a song-writer. The smart money for me goes on Sullivan opening up the national anthem before Church joins in.

Pick: Jazmine Sullivan

Who will sing the last note

• Jazmine Sullivan +125
• Eric Church +275
• Both Together -180

Analysis: I’m going with the same theory as I just did for the previous anthem props odds wager. Jazmine Sullivan should be finishing up the national anthem alone – but I suspect she won’t! Go with the ‘both’ selection here Super Bowl betting enthusiasts!

Pick: Both

Will Eric Church wear a Cowboy Hat

• Yes -600
• No +300

Analysis: Seriously? Just google Eric Church and images. He rarely wears a cowboy hat – if ever! This one’s easy as pie. Go with the No selection at a value-packed +300!

What will Jazmine Sullivan be wearing

• Skirt/Dress -220
• Pants/Shorts/Leggings +155

Analysis: I personally don’t care what Sullivan wears – she’s hot regardless of her outfit. However, I’m going with the skirt/dress selection here simply because she’s performed more in a dress than pants, shorts or leggings.

Pick: Skirt/Dress

In terms of sports in North America, there simply is no event bigger than the Super Bowl. People who don’t ever think about playing a wager on the outcome of sports get involved on Super Bowl Sunday. The bookies are well aware of this, which is why they offer a huge variety of bets, many of which are aimed at those who don’t know a lot about football.

The place to go looking for these wagers in in the prop bets section, where you will find all kinds of wagers about such obscure details as the color of the Gatorade being dumped on the winning coach to wardrobe malfunctions during the halftime show. Fir the purposes of this piece, we are going to focus on the prop bets for the national anthem.

Super Bowl LIV National Anthem Prop Bets

National Anthem Performance Prop Bets

The national anthem in Super Bowl LIV will be performed by Demi Lovato, a singer who likes to do some fancy runs and notes while she sings. This leads us perfectly to a prop that focuses on the length of a single word. When she gets to the end of the anthem, how long will it take her to get out the word, “Brave?” The O/U on this one is set at 5 ½ seconds, so if you are a fan of Demi Lovato and her singing style, this might be one that you can cash in on.

There is also a lot of interest in what Lovato will be wearing when she takes the field to sing the national anthem at Super Bowl LIV. There are 6 different colors to choose from when wagering on the primary color of her outfit. Black seems to be the consensus pick, with the odds for that set at +125, but if you think she might go for a splash of color, you can wager on pink as the primary color at odds of +800.

You can also place a bet on what she will actually be wearing, such as shorts, dress, etc.

Speaking of color, you can also wager on what color of microphone she will use when belting out the national anthem. Black seems to be the obvious choice here at odds of -180, but you can also wager on any other color at odds of +140.

Prop Bets Related to the National Anthem in Super Bowl LIV

While Demi Lovato will be front and center during the national anthem, there is also the potential for some distractions, the most obvious of which would be a player kneeling or raising a fist. Given that things seem to have died down in that area, I would be surprised if any players take that stance. If you believe otherwise, there is some serious money to be made given the current odds.

Another fun bet in the national anthem props section is whether a team will have a scoring drive faster than it took to sing the anthem. If you think the first score is going to come quickly, you can get that at odds of -300, which might not be a bad bet given how quickly the Chiefs can put points on the board.
