Super Bowl LVII is quickly approaching and with it, the annual tradition of the national anthem being performed before the big game. This year, country music superstar Chris Stapleton will be taking the stage to belt out “The Star-Spangled Banner.” As with any major sporting event, there are always betting opportunities, and the national anthem is no exception. Without further ado, let’s take a look at the latest the Super Bowl national anthem betting odds.
Bookies Think Anthem Goes Long
National anthem betting is becoming increasingly popular among sports bettors, and the most common wager is on the length of the anthem.
