With regulated sportsbooks, some of the fun is taken out of this year's Super Bowl betting bonanza. 

Case in point: For a wager to be fair to both bettors and sportsbooks, the outcome cannot be known beforehand.  And this somehow applies to one of the game's most beloved prop bets: The National Anthem.

FanDuel can't take bets on it.

Internationally licensed mobile sportsbook like BetUS have no problem doing so, and they're accessible in most states.

The opportunities are immense.

Length Of US National Anthem By Reba McEntire At Super Bowl LVIII will be the most wagered on to be certain.  Those odds are as follows:

Over  86½  Seconds     -125
Under  86½  Seconds     -115

The key to placing this particular prop bet is to review past performances of the legendary recording artist singing the National Anthem.  You can find a few YouTube videos on the Net.

Some of the prop bets revolve around who will be shown first during the performance of the National Anthem.

Chiefs starting quarterback Patrick Mahomes comes in as the favorite at -130.  49ers starting quarterback Brock Purdy comes in at -110.

Additionally there are prop bets on whether McEntire forgets a word, the color of her boots and outfit, as well as whether she shows any cleavage.

Yes         -240
No         +160
