I will set up some prop bets once I find a site that lists some.

No player props yet, just game props... coin toss, team to score first, will either team score in the first 6 minutes of the game, etc. I have no idea when the player props come out, but this site usually has some decent ones.

That one always cracks me up - betting on the coin toss. I've gone to Vegas for the SB before and the reaction after the coin toss is hilarious.

Yeah, people can get pretty ridiculous with some of that stuff. A guy I played ball with in college had his own little bookie service (which basically consisted of him answering the phone throughout the entire day and writing bets into a notebook). One of the craziest bets I heard back then was a bet on what the first commercial after the kickoff would be. Car, beverage, movie, etc. It's just insane what people will put money on.

Put me down for 50 large on beverage.

I would think the coin toss is one of the best bets you could ever make.


Except that Vegas isn't dumb and most gamblers are. They pay juice for something every 3rd grader can tell you will be an even 50/50 proposition.

The bet probably looks like this

Steelers win -105
Cards win -105

That means at -105 you risk $105 to win $100. If anyone here wants to flip coins with me for those numbers I'd be happy to take out a second mortgage on my house and oblige. :wink2:
