The Super Bowl is a lot of different things to different people, but perhaps as much as anything, it’s one day of the year when just about everyone will try their hand at gambling. If not by purchasing a “square” for the final score, then throwing five bucks on their favorite team.
Looking To Bet On The Super Bowl? The Big Money’s In The Anthem
↵But the best bang for your buck? According to the New York Press, the national anthem:
↵↵BoDog sets the over/under line at 1:42. Carrie Underwood’s historical average is 1:39 based on three performances available on YouTube ... This puts her three seconds under, but you have to figure she bumps up the dramatics for the Super Bowl, right?
↵Jordin Sparks gained 13 seconds on her historical average at the Super Bowl. Jennifer Hudson had a big change, Mariah Carey not so much but she sang with an orchestra, and Billy Joel had no change.
↵↵Speaking of the National Anthem, just... God Bless America. Nowhere else would they calculate the average length of someone’s national anthem for gambling purposes. And if that doesn’t make you love America, then wait until Sunday.
↵Chances are Carrie Underwood will make you pretty damn proud to be an American.
