Super Bowl Props – Bets You Wish You Could Make

I am submitting some Super Bowl props for the digestion of the powers-that-be at BetUS, and I certainly hope they can make use of “The Charles Jay Line” on things. Actually, I do this every year, in the pursuit of laying some out that aren’t part of the menu appearing at any other source. There are so many of them that I cannot be certain these are completely original, but I wouldn’t bet against it.

* HOW MUCH TIME WILL BE LEFT IN THE GAME WHEN THE WINNING COACH GETS THE GATORADE SHOWER?

1 minute, 20 seconds or OVER -130

UNDER 1 minute, 20 seconds -110

Have you ever wondered about this? When do the players know when the right time is. This is tricky, because as a seven-point favorite who could conceivably slow down the Cardinal offense, these Steeler players may just be celebrating a little earlier than expected. Then again, it may come down to the last play, in which case there may not be a Gatorade shower at all. If that happens, folks, it’s an “under.”

Ah, here’s one that covers the possibility that a team may be celebrating a little TOO early. And we’ve incorporated Gatorade’s new branding initiative in the title:

* The “G-WE-FIGURED-WRONG” prop — A coach gets a Gatorade shower, but his team goes on to lose the game. Price: 1000/1

In case you hadn’t noticed, NBC will be carrying the Super Bowl this season. If you’re old enough to remember, you know that this network’s coverage of pro football has not always gone without incident. For those nostalgia buffs, and for the sake of covering all angles, we present:

* The “HEIDI” prop — The movie “Heidi” interrupts NBC’s network feed with less than two minutes to go in the game, and the feed never come back. Price: 500/1

Speaking of the NBC coverage, were you aware that Tony Dungy and Mike Holmgren have been enlisted as on-air analysts for the pregame show? Along those lines, I was just wondering, with the huge worldwide audience, whether it might be announced during the broadcast that…..

* Dungy will be coaching a specifically-identified NFL Betting team next season — 1000/1

* Holmgren will be coaching a specifically-identified NFL team next season — 750/1

I guess we could call that the “DON’T KNOW WHEN TO QUIT” prop.

Here’s one I can use every year:

* The “BUNNY RANCH” Instead of saying “I’m going to Disney World” (or anything else, for that matter), the winning player says “I’m going to the Moonlite Bunny Ranch.” Price: 69/1, naturally.

The Super Bowl has come a long way as an entertainment event since its inception in 1967. It’s come an even longer way since Pete Rozelle wore out the welcome of “Up With People.” This year it’s Bruce Springsteen performing at halftime, and we were just wondering if “The Boss” might find his more erratic side while everyone’s watching, a la Justin Timberlake and Janet Jackson:

* The “MOAN IN THE U.S.A” prop — Bruce Springsteen complains during halftime show about not getting Oscar nomination for “Best Song.” Price: 250/1

And while we’re at it, we wonder whether he might depart unexpectedly from his pre-determined halftime music. Hence…

* The MORRIS ALBERT prop — Bruce Springsteen breaks into personalized rendition of “Feelings” during his halftime set. Price: 1000/1

Then there are these other ones I like, as we do a little play on words:

* The “SAFETY WINS – PART 1” prop — The game goes into overtime, and a safety (the 2-point variety) wins it — Price: 250/1

* The “SAFETY WINS – PART 2” prop — The game goes into overtime, and a safety scores a touchdown to win it (think Ed Reed or Troy Polamalu) — Price: 100/1

* The “SAFETY-SAFETY” prop — A safety will tackle someone for a safety — Price: 75/1

* The “SAFETY-FIRST” prop — A safety will be the first score of both the first half and the second half — Price: 10,000/1

And finally, there is some of my patented stuff:

* The “LaBOY & THE HOOD” prop — Both Travis LaBoy and Roderick Hood of Arizona will score touchdowns — Price: 4000/1

* The “HINES-57” prop — Both Hines Ward of Pittsburgh and either Victor Hobson (#57 of the Cardinals) or Keyaron Fix (#57 of the Steelers) also scores a touchdown — Price: 57/1

* The “DOUBLE-DEKKER-TRAINWRECKER” prop — Tight end Jon Dekker of the Steelers (on injured reserve), who was arrested on Sunday, will be arrested again before the Super Bowl — Price: 250/1

* The “URBAN LEGEND” prop — Wide receiver Jerheme Urban of the Cardinals catches three TD passes, including the game-winner — Price: 5000/1

* The “FULL MONTY” prop — Linebacker Monty Beisel of the Cardinals returns both a fumble and an interception back for touchdowns — Price: 2000/1

* The “EARLY EXIT” prop — Arizona wide receiver Early Doucet leaves the game for good in the first quarter, either from ejection or injury — Price: 100/1

* The “GAY-NINETIES” prop — Both Pittsburgh cornerback William Gay and someone with a jersey number of 90 or above will score touchdowns — Price: 250/1

Those are just a few. It’s too bad Arizona linebacker Ali Highsmith is on injured reserve. I could have done my “ALI-FRAZIER” prop, where it paid 2500/1 if both he and Pittsburgh’s Andre Frazier scored TD’s.

Oh well.

If you want the full list, give me a call. I’m just sitting here, like a mad scientist.
