super bowl real time micro betting…

at the super bowl party I attended this year there was no structured pool. Instead, there were a series of micro bets placed for $1-$5 units on a range of scenarios with point spread or odds set in real time. It was a really fun way to keep a lot of action going. This is the complete list of bets placed… some were pretty funny:

  • Winner of Game (with 12 pt spread)
  • 1st Team to score
  • Yards on NY 1st possession over/under=43
  • NE 3rd down conversion with :25 remaining in 1st Quarter
  • NE 2nd down on 1 yard line in 2nd Q, score or no score
  • Yards on NY 2nd possession over/under=43
  • NY will score on 3rd position, yes or no
  • At 7:24 remaining in 2nd Q, NE will convert 3rd & 17, yes or no
  • Randy Moss height, over/under=6’3”
  • Terrell Owens height, over/under=6’3”
  • Tom Petty’s age, over/under=58
  • At 13:48 remaining in 3rd Q, NE will score on current drive, yes or no
  • Tom Brady’s age, over/under=31
  • Carmen Electra’s age, over/under=33
  • At 1:05 remaining, pick winner of the game
