Super Bowl LII National Anthem Props

With over 400 prop bets out there for you to consider for Super Bowl LII, it’s no surprise that the performance of the national anthem has its own list of online betting choices. Pink is the performer that will take the microphone this year. Over the course of the first 51 Super Bowls, the anthem has come from choirs (even a children’s choir), marching bands, trumpet solos, and (most frequently) solo vocalists. There was even one year (Super Bowl XI) when the performer sang “America the Beautiful” instead of performing the national anthem (can you imagine what the prop betting ended up like that year?). Let’s take a look at some of your Super Bowl LII betting options for this year’s national anthem performance.

How long will it take for Pink to sing the national anthem?

Note: This lasts from the point in time when she begins singing until the note in “Brave” ends for the first time.

• Over 2 minutes -150
• Under 2 minutes +110

If you pull up a standard performance of the national anthem on YouTube, it usually doesn’t take even 90 seconds. However, big-time performers like to draw out those notes and add vibrato, so the average of the last five Super Bowl national anthems has been 1:58. Do you see Pink as a minimalist or as someone who likes to embellish performances? Your answer will determine whether you go under or over here.

What color will Pink’s hair be when she starts to sing the national anthem? (Predominant)

The wording of this question is interesting, because it suggests that her hair color could change over the course of the song. That would be the oddest color change since the “horse of a different color” prancing around the Emerald City in The Wizard of Oz. Anyway, here are your odds:

• White/Blonde 5-4
• Pink/Red 2-1
• Blue/Purple 5-1
• Brown/Black 7-1
• Green 3-1 (remember, Pink is a huge fan of the Philadelphia Eagles)

Will Pink be airborne at any point during her singing of the national anthem? (Note: This means she must be airborne at some point between the first note she singing and when she finishes saying “brave” for the first time”

Yes +300 / No -500 It’s hard to see this happening. But you never know what the NFL will spend money on.

Will Pink forget or leave out a word from the national anthem?

• Yes +300
• No -500

I’m pretty sure that the performers practice this about 800,000 times before they hit the field before 140 million people on television.

Will Pink wear a Philadelphia Eagles hat or shirt while singing the national anthem?

• Yes +170
• No -250

Yes, she’s a Philly fan. But would Roger Goodell approve? We don’t want to see her get fined for expressing herself.

Will any scoring drive take less time than it takes Pink to sing the national anthem?

• Yes -120
• No -120

Given how Tom Brady can move a team down the field in crunch time, this is something that could definitely happen.

Who will be shown first on TV during the singing of the national anthem?

• Tom Brady -220
• Nick Foles +155

I see this one as a no-brainer. Brady and the Patriots have been all over the television this week, with the Eagles living largely under the radar.
