The Super Bowl is such a sports marvel. It's not only the biggest game of the year in American sports. The halftime performance and commercials during the game can sometimes steal the show.
In every facet, it is a unique experience for a sporting event. This year, country music superstar Reba McEntire will perform the National Anthem before the game between the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers.
Betting odds have also taken over the sports world. You can bet on the amount of time it takes her to complete her rendition of Star Spangled Banner on many platforms. Which option should you choose – over or under 90.5 seconds?
The best choice, considering her past performances, is the UNDER. Those odds sit at -128
Why is that? Reba has performed the National Anthem on a large stage four different times at sporting events. She's never eclipsed 90.5 seconds so far.
Celebrity of Hope Softball Game in Nashville, Tennessee in 2017: 82 seconds
World Series in Cleveland, Ohio in 1997: 84 seconds
National Finals Rodeo in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma in 1984: 78 seconds
Dallas Cowboys Game, 1999: 89 seconds
All in all, her precedent is a quicker type of anthem performance. She has never taken her time. That being said, she's had some great performances in the past, and Sunday's will probably accomplish that as well.
The under is the safer option for this wager.
