Super Bowl 2025 Special Bets: The Weird, the Funny and the Outrageous

Written by Chris Flavell Last time updated 04/02/2025

No betting markets are bigger than the Super Bowl, and this year’s big game is no different. As usual, there are plenty of exciting stories and narratives surrounding the match, and the bookmakers are taking full advantage of this.

At this point, you can already find several funny Super Bowl 2025 special bets, and we have collected the best ones for this article to make it easier for you to take part in the fun.

The National Anthem

As always, the Super Bowl opens with the National Anthem. This year, Jon Batiste has the honour of singing the American national anthem, and this is where the betting fun begins.

How long will the performance of the national anthem be?

Any player or coach to be shown on the broadcast with a tear on their cheek during the duration of the national anthem?

When betting on these kinds of special bets, you should keep in mind that the bet limits are usually low due to their unpredictable nature.

The Half Time Show

Kendrick Lamar is heading the halftime show. This is his second time performing at the Super Bowl halftime show. He also co-headlined the Super Bowl in 2022 together with Eminem, Dr Dre, Snoop Dogg, 50 Cent and Mary J. Blige. This year, he’s the sole performer though.

However, that doesn’t necessarily mean that he won’t invite high-profile guests on stage. The halftime artists usually invite guests to join them on the biggest stage, and you can earn money if you can guess correctly. This is a popular bet with many top betting sites. All odds shown below are with Palmerbet.

Who joins Kendrick Lamar on the stage?

  • Baby Keem @1.40
  • Jay Rock @1.57
  • Zacari @1.72
  • Metro Boomin @1.80
  • Lil Wayne @1.91
  • Lefty Gunplay @2.10
  • Eminem @2.37
  • Future @2.75
  • Doechii @3.00
  • Sampha @3.00
  • A$AP Rocky @4.00
  • The Weeknd @4.00
  • Schoolboy Q @5.00
  • Travis Scott @5.00
  • Anderson Paak @6.00
  • Rihanna @7.50

  • Imagine Dragon @23.00
  • Kanye West @26.00
  • Maroon 5 @26.00
  • Jay-Z @34.00
  • Drake @41.00

Performing artists usually don’t play their songs in full, rather opting to play the most popular parts of the songs to have time to get through more songs during the short halftime show.

With so many songs to pick from, another important question is of course how many of them Kendrick Lamar and his potential guests will sing.

Total number of songs performed:

Lastly, there is no way to ignore the ongoing feud between Kendrick Lamar and Canadian rapper Drake. Kendrick’s biggest hit this year was the diss track ‘Not Like Us’, which is expected to be one of the songs sung during the show.

However, that song is only the latest in a long series of diss tracks towards the rival rapper. Kendrick Lamar has been involved in five diss tracks aimed at Drake.

How many diss tracks does Kendrick Lamar sing about Drake?

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce

The biggest non-sporting talking point of the game is naturally Taylor Swift and her relationship with Travis Kelce of the Kansas City Chiefs.

She is one of the most popular singers in the world and will be at the game to support her boyfriend. The couple have been together since autumn 2023, and there have been marriage rumours lately.

You can bet on if Kelce will pop the big question on the field after the match for the whole world to see.

Will Travis Kelce propose on the field?

Taylor Swift Super Bowl Novelties

It isn’t just about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce when it comes to Super Bowl specials. Given the fact the pop superstar will likely be in attendance once again, there are also a host of Taylor Swift novelty bets to consider for 2025. All odds shown are with Palmerbet. We list the top 10 in the bigger market but others are available at bigger prices.

First person shown next to Taylor Swift after kick-off

  • No @1.52

Gatorade Colour

The winning NFL team always celebrates their victory by pouring Gatorade over their head coach. The popular sports drink comes in a lot of different colours, so guessing which colour the winning team brings with them is not easy.

However, over the past two seasons, both won by the Kansas City Chiefs, they have poured purple Gatorade over head coach Andy Reid. It is therefore likely, especially given the level of superstition in sports, that they will choose this colour again this year. Whether they win, of course, is another question. All odds with Unibet.

Which colour Gatorade is poured over the winning coach?

  • Purple @3.00
  • Lime, green or yellow @3.10
  • Orange @6.00
  • Blue @7.50
  • Red @8.50
  • Clear, water @11.00
