Superbowl 50 is on this Monday morning Australian time, and for some it is the biggest sporting event on the calendar.
The Gurgler however isn’t quite up on the stats or the claims of either team in the big decider. We’ve heard of the Denver quarterback, and understand the basics of the game, but we just never seem to have the time to watch any NFL. That League Two English Football and Formula E isn’t going to watch itself.
But we do appreciate a big sporting event, and we will tune in regardless to soak up the big event, and ponder about why everyone gets so excited about the half time show. We’d get into it if we could get the star filled ads as part of the coverage.
What could make us really get into the game? Betting? Yes, but since we know bugger all, it’s really just street money. Then we found Novelty Bets for Superbowl 50 and it is street money in its purest form. Since we’re going to waste it, why not do it in style.
Here is a rundown of our favourite markets and our sure fire win, win, win (loss, loss, loss) tips. The full list can be found at Sportsbet here.
