Super Bowl 58 National Anthem Prop Bets featuring Reba McEntire

While the Super Bowl is easily the biggest game of the NFL season, it’s not everyone that tunes in specifically for the game. MyBookie Sportsbook | Super Bowl National Anthem Prop Bets Worth Going After

Yes, the viewing audience will be huge, but you have people who are there for the half-time show, the ads, or the other spectacles that revolve around the biggest game on the American sports calendar. This is why so many of the available Super Bowl prop bets are for things outside of the game, with one of the most popular being the length of the National Anthem. This year, it will be Reba McEntire blessing us with her rendition of the Star-Spangled Banner, but how long will it take her to sing the song? That is what we are going to be looking at here.

The Current Time Set By The Bookies

The Line on the National Anthem prop bet has changed a little since the odds first went live, but it is now currently set at 90.5 seconds. Now, if you or I were to sing the song without any type of fanfare, we might all clock in at around the same time, but performers are not cut from the same cloth as us mere mortals. Singers love to soak up the spotlight and take their time singing it, adding in some runs and moments designed to show off their talent. That is where things can get tricky for those of us looking to get in on the Super Bowl 58 National Anthem Prop Bet.

The History of the National Anthem at the Super Bowl

Believe it or not, as popular as this prop wager is, it did not become a betting option until 2007. In the 17 years since, the OVER has hit 9 times, while the UNDER has come in on 7 different occasions. That might be tedious to some, but it came in the First Super Bowl after 9-11, so it was seen as something particularly special.

Reba McEntire Singing the Anthem

Now, here is where things get interesting, although some might also say confusing. Reba McEntire has had a long, successful career, and as such, she has been called upon to sing the National Anthem at a host of different events. If you believe that this might offer up some clue as to how long it will take her to do it at Super Bowl 58, you might want to think again.

Previous performances at different events have run the gamut from quick (65 seconds) to longer, 1 minute and 22 seconds, with various different time points in between. The difference here, though, is that the Super Bowl is a whole different ball game, with performers very often choosing to bask in the spotlight and make the moment last longer than is usual. I think that is what we might see this weekend, which is why I would be inclined to take the OVER on the Super Bowl National Anthem prop bet.
