Kelly Clarkson :: Super Bowl Singing

Betting on the Super Bowl is almost as popular as the game itself. Most folks are content to pick a winner and cross their fingers, but others like their bets to be a little more, well, obscure. These wagers, known as prop bets, can cover everything from how long a singer will take to finish the national anthem to who will score the game's first points. Jeff DeLuca of the Yahoo! Contributor Network listed some of the strangest prop bets before the game kicked off. Here are some of the results: Did Kelly Clarkson take too long to sing the national anthem? According to Bovada sportsbook, Clarkson went over 1 minute, 34 seconds, which was the betting line cutoff. However, another source (unofficially) timed Clarkson at 1:33.81. One could also bet on whether or not Clarkson would forget a word (she did not) and whether she would show her belly while singing (she did not).
