The opening coin toss at Super Bowl 60 between the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks is a popular prop bet, with sportsbooks offering even odds on both Heads and Tails.

Why it matters

The coin toss prop bet has become a fun and engaging way for fans to get involved in the Super Bowl festivities, adding an extra layer of excitement and anticipation to the pregame proceedings. While the outcome of the coin toss doesn't directly determine the winner of the game, it has proven to be an unreliable predictor of the eventual champion.

The details

Several sportsbooks are offering the coin toss prop bet as a pick 'em, with both Heads and Tails currently listed at -103 odds (bet $10 to win $19.71 total). The odds on which team will win the coin toss are also even, with the Patriots and Seahawks both listed at -105. Tails has been the winner in six of the last 10 Super Bowls, though the winner of the coin toss has gone on to lose the game 33 times historically.
