Novelty Props for Super Bowl 57: Specials, Position of MVP Winner, Will There be Scorigami?

There's a tidal wave of prop options available ahead of the Super Bowl, ranging from intriguing to absurd. Don't get lost in a sea filled with Gatorade and octopuses, and let us guide you through the top novelty prop bets for Super Bowl 57.

One minute, you'll be minding your own business while researching normal football-betting things. Should you take the Over on that Travis Kelce yardage prop? And what about the Devonta Smith anytime touchdown pick you've been eyeing?

Then, suddenly, you'v e been swept away, and you've invested a whole lot of time diving deep down the Gatorade colors rabbit hole. A Google image search for “Super Bowl Gatorade” reveals splashes of orange everywhere. But what about that blue baths Bruce Arians and Sean McVay took? Or the green/lime on Doug Pederson in 2018?

That's where the fun and/or lunacy begins. It can also include various halftime show props and betting on the appearance of an octopus (not a real one, though I'm sure that prop is out there somewhere, too).

Here are our top Super Bowl 57 novelty props (odds via Bet365, FanDuel Sportsbook, DraftKings Sportsbook, and Barstool Sportsbook).

Andy Reid was bathed in orange after Super Bowl 54. Orange is often the most popular choice and where the mind goes first. But as James Bisson noted in his Super Bowl color odds, prop bets, and history – a thorough breakdown of all hydration celebration matters – the winning coach has been doused in blue in two straight Super Bowls, and three of the past four.

Will there be an octopus during Super Bowl 57?

Bet: Yes (+1400); No (-10000) via DraftKings 

In football language, an octopus occurs when a player scores a touchdown and then that same player tallies the ensuing 2-poin t conversion. He's then accounted for eight points on that trip down the field, thus becoming a slithering football octopus.

An octopus has occurred just 175 times since the 2-point conversion attempt was introduced in 1994. However, two of those instances were from Jalen Hurts and Patrick Mahomes this past season.
