The Super Bowl brings many unique ways for gamblers to lay down some action and sweat out some bets. However, what if you don’t care for either team? You don’t want your hard-earned cash going towards either of these teams. Maybe you’ve already tapped out on player props. That’s okay because you can bet exotic props! Let’s take a look at the best picks for Super Bowl Exotic Props!
What is an exotic prop? Exotic props are unique or different bets. It’s not just the coin toss or the National Anthem. We’re talking about more unique bets, such as the color of Gatorade. Which coach is seen on TV first? What is the first commercial? These are all exotic props, and while not all books have them, if you dig, you can find some really fun prop bets. Here are my best picks and predictions!
Super Bowl Exotic Props: Picks And Predictions
The Color Of Gatorade
The most popular non-football Super Bowl exotic prop to bet on is the color of the Gatorade. If you’ve watched any sport, you know the coach that wins the Championship usually gets a Gatorade bath. But what color Gatorade gets dumped?
Last year, Andy Reid bathed in purple. Ironically, that’s the favorite this year. If you believe Sean Green‘s take, the Super Bowl Logo had purple in it, but neither of the teams do. Orange has hit the most often (five times), and green Gatorade hasn’t been seen in the Super Bowl since 2001!
The current odds, depending on where you look, are as follows: Purple +275, Blue +450, Yellow/Green +425, Orange +350, Red/Pink +350, Clear/Water +1200, and no Gatorade dump at +1600.
If you’re feeling daring, go with Orange +350 since it’s the most used. It’s hard to argue red as well, with both teams having red in their uniforms. However, I like the below color.

Half Time Show
If you know me well, you’ll know I’m not an Usher guy. It’s nothing against Usher. It’s just not my style of music. So this is probably where I’ll refill my plate with goodies and relieve myself of the whiskey I’ve been partaking in. However, some will be glued to the TV, not only to hear the music but to sweat out some bets.
You can bet so many different things when it comes to the halftime show. The bets start with how many songs Usher sings and how many guests he features.
You can guess his opening song and even the number of wardrobe changes. So, what do the odds look like for these Super Bowl exotic props, and which should you bet?
Right now, the number of songs is at 8.5, with the over and under both being at -110. Nobody wants to pay the juice on the number of songs in a 15-minute performance, so let’s look at his first song.
Right now, the odds are favoring “My Way!” to be the favorite at +225. “Yeah!” is also gaining steam at +255. Others include “OMG” at +800 and “DJ Got Us Fallin’ In Love” at +500. A sneaky one is “Love In This Club” at +600.
I also like looking at the guest performers. The favorite is Alicia Keys at -330. With those odds, you can almost guarantee she’ll be there. Ludacris is at -250, and Lil Jon is also catching juice at -102.
Nicki Minaj is the first plus money bet at +310, and Diddy at +390. The most interesting one is Taylor Swift. TSwift and the NFL have been breathed in the same sentence for months now, and she’s +550 to crash the halftime show.

First Touchdown Scorer – But Not By Name
Don’t worry. There are some Super Bowl exotic props that surround football and not Gatorade or the halftime show. The most popular one has to do with the first touchdown scorer. However, you get to bet on the last touchdown scorer the same way. At the Sports Gambling Podcast, we’re used to Kramer handing out first touchdowns by name. However, this one is by number.
The prop bet is first; you can also bet last, the touchdown scorer’s jersey number to be over 22.5 or under 22.5. Both the over and under for first and last are -110.
The favorites for first touchdown scorer are Christian McCaffrey (23), Isiah Pacheco (10), Travis Kelce (87), and Deebo Samuel (19). I also like George Kittle as the first touchdown scorer (85).
Both quarterbacks are under 22.5. Pacheco and Deebo are also under jersey number 22.5. However, CMC, Travis Kelce, and George Kittle are all over. I personally think it will be one of the latter three mentioned.
You can also bet combined touchdown scorer numbers over 121.5 and under 121.5. Two Travis Kelce touchdowns or Travis Kelce plus Christian McCaffrey and one other player likely pushes this over. The over is juiced to -125, but it seems like an almost guaranteed.

Super Bowl Repeats
Some of the other football-related exotic props for the Super Bowl include betting a repeat of Super Bowl LIV. These two met in 2020, and as you can see in this video, we need the 49ers to win to reverse the 2020 effect. However, will we be able to turn back time and get some of the same things to happen?
The first Super Bowl repeat bet to consider is the 49ers to score zero points in the fourth quarter. This happened in 2020 and is +380 to happen this year. Do you think the Chiefs’ defense will lock them down in the fourth?
If so, this bet is for you. Another is for Deebo Samuel to record a 30+ yard rush at +950. While the Chiefs’ defense is really good, +950 is hard to pass up on a talented player like Deebo.
The other two are very long odds. You can bet for the final score to be 31-20 at +25,000. You can also take Mahomes to score the first touchdown and Kyle Juszczyk to score the second, just like in 2020, at +50,000.
It’s hard not to want to sprinkle some on there. However, I’m already on record saying the score will be 31-21, and here is why.

Deep Dive Exotic Props
There are a couple of other Super Bowl exotic props you could dive into, but you’re going to have to dive deep to find them. You might even need to head over to KUTT. In fact, check out this entire article on the exotic prop offerings of KUTT. However, some of them even include commercials.
Will the first commercial after kickoff be a beer commercial? As much as the beer industry pours (pun intended) into commercials, I don’t think the NFL wants to start with a beer commercial.
It’ll likely be something more touching. You can also decide which ad will come first, a Doritos or Bud Light. These are a complete coin flip. Speaking of coin flip, you can bet on that too.
