Out of the nearly 1,000 Super Bowl LIII proposition bets set to be offered across major online sportsbooks, one of the most popular is wagering a completely independent event offering zero betting value: the winner of the coin-toss. The entirely random occurrence presents zero edge to professional sports investors, but is easy to comprehend, settled early in the night, and highly entertaining, especially appealing for the novice bettor.

Super Bowl LV: Coin Toss, Kick Deferral, and First Score Trends for the Buccaneers and Chiefs: What can we learn from this season's coin toss data that could help us get leverage on early-game props? Sporting News embarked on a search to find the funniest and most bizarre ways you can win money beyond the Super Bowl 53 betting line. Here are some of our favorite prop bets for the big game in 2019.

The Super Bowl coin toss takes place three minutes prior to kickoff and provides the winner the honor of receiving or deferring possession to start the game. Since 1978, a nominated celebrity flips a specially-minted coin with each team’s logo stamped on the Tails side, while the venue is represented on Heads. The referee confirms the side selection while the coin is in mid-toss. This affirms the correct team decision, avoiding the 1998 Thanksgiving Day blunder made by referee Phil Luckett. You can watch that infamous gaff below, where miscommunication occurred between Luckett and former Steelers’ RB Jerome Bettis deciding overtime possession:

Some decent-sized money is handled picking the Super Bowl coin-toss winner. In 2017, William Hill US wrote a $2,000 ticket wagering on Heads. The flip landed Tails, which has hit in five consecutive quests for the Lombardi Trophy. There are other Super Bowl coin-toss bets available. Let’s take a look at a few of these prop bets and trends:

Heads or Tail (-105, -105)

Don’t believe conspiracy theorists and crackpots when they claim specially-minted Super Bowls coins are weighted heavily on one side offering some sort of flip advantage. In the world of probability, this simply has no effect. The coin has no memory. In terms of physics, how a tosser flips the extra-heavy coin, it’s landing, etc., could have some effect on the outcome. But it is enough to overcome a fair 50-50 outcome? Nah. For what it’s worth, Tails has come up 28 times (53.8 percent) and Heads 24 times (46.2 percent) in Super Bowl coin flips.

Which Team Will Win the Toss (-105, -105)

From 1998-2011 the NFC won the Super Bowl coin toss 14 straight times. What are the odds of that happening? Roughly 16,000-to-1 or +1600000. The random streak has given the NFC a 67.3 percent win rate picking the flip. The AFC has won three of the last seven. There is nothing statistically significant in the trend. It’s randomness.

Deciding Team Picks Toss Correctly (-105, -105)

The conference champion designated the visiting team makes the call on the coin-toss, home teams select jersey colors. In even-numbered Super Bowls, the NFC is considered the away team, as opposed to the AFC in odd years. The AFC is 10-16 (38.4 percent) picking the toss, including whiffing in three of the last 10 contests.

Coin-Toss Winner Wins Super Bowl (-125, -105)

The conventional wisdom when winning the toss is to choose to receive possession first. The belief is scoring first will boost confidence. Only five coin-flip winners in the 52 Super Bowls have elected to kick off, including the Patriots last season. Teams winning the toss have gone on to hoist the Lombardi Trophy 51.9 percent of the time.

It seems so simple, right?

An NFL game starts with a coin toss, one team calls whether it’ll be heads or tails and that helps decide who gets to receive the football in the first half or second.

But it’s NOT that simple, and we have proof: back in December, Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott told referee Walt Anderson that the team would defer to the second half after winning the toss. But Anderson misheard him and said the Los Angeles Rams would get the ball in the first and second halves.

It was eventually corrected and Prescott made sure to say “DEFER” loud and clear a week later.

So what are the coin toss rules as Super Bowl LIV approaches? Here they are, from the NFL:

Not more than three minutes before the kickoff of the first half, the Referee, in the presence of both team’s captains (limit of six per team, active, inactive or honorary) shall toss a coin at the center of the field. Prior to the Referee’s toss, the call of “heads” or “tails” must be made by the captain of the visiting team, or by the captain designated by the Referee if there is no home team. Unless the winner of the toss defers his choice to the second half, he must choose one of two privileges, and the loser is given the other.

The two privileges are:

(a) The opportunity to receive the kickoff, or to kick off; or

(b) The choice of goal his team will defend.

If the coin does not turn over in the air or the toss is compromised in any way, the Referee shall toss it again. The captain’s original call may not be changed.

Penalty: For failure to comply: Loss of coin-toss option for both halves and overtime, and loss of 15 yards from the spot of the kickoff for the first half only.

There you have it. Hopefully, whoever says their decision does so loud and clear.
