Superbowl fun facts

[itchyback]

Andy Reid, and others on the Kansas City Chiefs can enter rarified air if they win Super Bowl LVIII.

per Fansided, only 4 head coaches have ever won at least three Super Bowls:
• Bill Belichick – Patriots (6) • Chuck Noll – Steelers (4) • Bill Walsh - 49ers (3) • Joe Gibbs – Redskins (3)

In addition, Chiefs signal-caller Mahomes has a chance to reach a milestone only four quarterbacks in NFL history have accomplished.
If Mahomes leads the Chiefs to a victory over the 49ers on Super Bowl Sunday, he will join
Tom Brady, Terry Bradshaw, Joe Montana, and Troy Aikman on the list of field generals to have won at least three Super Bowls.


Front Office Sports reported that a September email from the league prohibited players of this year's Super Bowl teams from gambling of any kind –
both casino games and sports betting. However, players of other teams in Las Vegas as spectators of the big game may gamble, though only on casino games and non-NFL sports.

The memo from the NFL further states that all players, participating or not, are not allowed to visit sportsbooks until after the Super Bowl is over.
There is an exception in cases where a player must walk through a sportsbook to reach another location.

Who Sang the Longest National Anthem?​

Alicia Keys clocked in at 2 minutes 35 seconds during Super Bowl XLVII. The average length is about 1 minute and 50 seconds.
We'll see how this year's performer Reba McEntire measures up!

The NFL doesn’t pay bands/artists for performing at the halftime show​

You would think artists would be paid big for a gig like this, but nay. The NFL only covers the expenses and production costs, but does not pay the performers themselves. Even Queen Bey herself was not paid a penny to perform in the Super Bowl. What they do get is exposure, and lots of it. Millions of people are tuned in, often even more so than to the actual game. After the 2020 halftime show, Shakira’s Spotify streams went up by 230% and Jennifer Lopez’ went up by 335%. So, the artists end up benefitting quite a bit anyway.


· According to Forbes, of the 32 franchises the San Francisco 49ers are the ninth most NFL valuable at $6 billion. The Kansas City Chiefs rank #23 at $4.3 billion.



· The American Gaming Association reports last year’s Super Bowl had over 50 million Americans had wagered $16 billion. The highest of any one sporting event of 2023.

· It is forecast nearly 68 million people will make a wager in the Super Bowl or about one in four U.S. adults, setting a record.

All the Big bets makes sense to how the line has not moved up.The sportsbooks will let the players pile in and will invite lopsided action if they think its the wrong side. Books don t care if you Bet a side they think is a Loser.Just because there are Big bets on certain Teams, it doesn t necessarily means its from wiseguys or sharps, its somebody with money making a Big Bet. If the Linemaker wanted more KC action they could move it to 3 or 3' . Won t happen because KC is the Right side.Bookies will take ALL the action they can get on the wrongside. KC is the Right side.

This makes a lot of sense . For what it’s worth it did open at -1 and pre Super Bowl lime was a pickem . So it did move solid points .

It’ll be interesting to see what it closes at -1.5 would be telling then right ? Telling us they’re inviting more SF $ for more losers?

I think so.I found your info. interesting. All I had been hearing is everyone is taking the Chiefs, but everyone is not taking the Chiefs if those Large wagers have been made.With California being such a Big state, you would think a lot of money would be bet from californians just to get behind one of the States teams. Mahomes and KC could lose, but as Great as he is, it will be a little surprising.Great players play Better in Big games.He has shown that in the past.I think the Line will move down

Totally..here’s the thing. I’m all on niners. Took LC as dogs in playoffs and the short favorite against bills. I’m in SF and grew up niners. With that being said , I am not at all comfortable about it. I shouldn’t say that 20 percent comfortable putting big units on them, just from the way they’ve dug deep and came back to win in playoffs, nevermind regular season. LC is the comfortable play, the play that can be trusted based off their 4 year history with Mahomes and Reid winning 2 titles and making it to 4 SB . My friends say be faithful but it’s tough losing thousands every year in the biggest games when niners are in it. Minus all story lines, SF has the grit and is very capable of winning . Minus all the story lines, KC is very capable of winning as well. Should be a good match
