Prop Bet: Super Bowl 2013's Wackiest Wagers

We've got the odds for some of the most unusual prop bets for Super Bowl XLVI. These make betting on the coin flip seem normal.

Betting on the Super Bowl coin flip used to be considered crazy business. Those odds are simple: 50/50. But times have changed, and people can wager on bets that have nothing to do with the Super Bowl - from whether Alicia Keys will be booed during or after her rendition of the National Anthem to how many times “Jack Harbaugh” will be shown on TV during the game.
