Yes. Where legal, Super Bowl betting is one of the most popular sporting events to bet on in the world, if not the most popular. While you can make the usual point spread and over/under bets, the Super Bowl is known for the array of proposition bets that are possible. Those have become even more popular at online sportsbooks since PASPA was overturned in 2018.
Online sportsbooks like DraftKings and FanDuel have tons of prop bets available whether you want to bet on a point spread or total for a given quarter or half, or go deep and project how many yards a quarterback throws for or how many touchdowns the running back will get. Going further, those sportsbooks also have extreme props that don't relate to the game such as the over/under time for the National Anthem and the color of the post-game Gatorade poured on the winning coach.
As sports betting legalizes across the country, more and more sites will come up with extravagant props for the Super Bowl because it's the most popular single event. But while that happens, Las Vegas will remain the hub for sports betting because of the endless amount of options.
