Novelty Prop Betting For Super Bowl LVII in Massachusetts

When it comes to sports betting, one event stands out among all the rest: the Super Bowl. The Super Bowl receives more wagers than any other single sporting event in the world. Thanks to the recent launch of retail sports betting in Massachusetts, sports fans in the state can now get in on the action.

In addition to common NFL wagers such as moneylines, spreads, totals, player props, and parlays, Massachusetts sportsbooks will offer special novelty props for Super Bowl LVII. This gives Massachusetts sports fans even more options to consider when placing their Super Bowl wagers.

Let’s take a closer look at some of the top novelty props at Massachusetts sportsbooks and how to bet them:

What Are Novelty Props?

Sportsbooks bring out some interesting and creative bet types for the biggest game of the year. These are referred to as novelty props. They are a bit more unique than the average NFL wager, and are typically not available for regular season or playoff NFL games.

Novelty props involve more obscure events at the Super Bowl. Popular examples include the coin toss, color of Gatorade poured on the winning head coach, and total length of the national anthem.

In addition to those, you can also bet on whether or not a kick will hit the upright or crossbar, if there will be a flea flicker, and the jersey number of the player to score the first touchdown.

No matter which novelty prop (or props) you decide to go with, they are sure to provide plenty of entertainment.
