Superbowl LIX popular picks and novelty props

It's Big Game weekend and Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans is drawing major watch and wager action. The annual smorgasbord of prop bets on the Super Bowl adds to the engagement and excitement of the biggest sporting event of the year. It's also essentially an annual sporting holiday with fans, friends and football together at parties across the country and world, including Las Vegas where I report, live and often attend major events and parties.

But not this year's Super Bowl, as I report remotely from a far away destination with limited connectivity. I won't be at those Las Vegas Super Bowl parties on the Las Vegas Strip with major sportsbooks Caesars, MGM, Stations, Boyd and Wynn or at the two biggest sportsbooks at the SuperBook or Circa, home of the biggest pro football contests Circa Millions and Circa Survivor.

So it's the final football game of the 2024-25 season, and we've said throughout to find the best odds, and bet within your limits with the top online sportsbooks, who often have better contests for customers, offering top payouts.

Bankroll and Betting The Eagles to Fly

This is not the Sunday to unload your biggest bets, even if you have the confidence I do that the Eagles will win Super Bowl LIX, just as I projected in 2004, when the Eagles pounded the Patriots as more than a four-point underdog.

The superior running game and defense of the Eagles should prevail, short of turnover troubles, unforseen or unusual plays or officiating that has often been more favorable for the Chiefs.

Record Wagering And Novelty Props

The American Gaming Association estimates more than $1.4 billion will be bet on Super Bowl 59. That does not include more than that bet at leading online sportsbooks outside the U.S. like BetOnline, which offers more novelty prop bets like props on U.S. president Donald Trump and Taylor Swift.

Check out the Trump Props in my Super Bowl coverage in Forbes and select ones below, along with nearly 100 props offered by BetOnline for Taylor Swift.

My one prop bet of interest on Trump is that if he does provide a pick on his prepared interview with FOX News, it will be on the Chiefs. That's worth a wager, as not only is Patrick Mahomes wife, Brittany, a noted Trump supporter, but recall in 2016 when Trump was U.S. President that the Philadelphia Eagles boycotted visiting the White House after winning the Super Bowl.
