    I think that is where a lot of the regular bettor's money is going right now.

    I meanwhile play my one line on the five major lottery games about $127/month and occasionally more out of my winnings.  That's it.

    Here is a nice article on the history of all 54 Super Bowl betting the most gambled on sporting event in the United States of America.  Will things be different this year ?  https://www.vegasinsider.com/nfl/superbowl/history

    The early lines look pretty much like last year's lines with KC, BAL and SF the favorites.  Check it out from Vegas insider.com.      

    Super Bowl Betting Line History

    		 

    The Super Bowl is the championship for the National Football League (NFL), which is America’s superior football league. The game pits the winner of two conferences, the National Football Conference (NFC) against the American Football Conference (AFC) in the finale. This is an annual event that started in 1967 and is usually played on the first Sunday in February.

    The Super Bowl is the most gambled-on sporting event in the United States. The 2021 finale will take place at Raymond James Stadium from Tampa, Florida on Feb. 7, 2021.

    Super Bowl Spreads

    Through the first 54 Super Bowls, the NFC and AFC have gone 27-27 against one another. The Pittsburgh Steelers and the New England Patriots have the most Super Bowl wins at six, while the Dallas Cowboys and San Francisco 49ers both have five.

    Favorites have gone 36-17 straight up and 29-20-2 against the spread in the Super Bowl. The largest upset came in Super Bowl III (1969) when the New York Jets beat the Baltimore Colts 16-7 as 18-point underdogs.

    The Kansas City Chiefs defeated the San Francisco 49ers 31-20 in the 2020 finale and they covered as 1 ½-point favorites.

    Super Bowl Lines

    The point-spread rarely comes into play with the Super Bowl, meaning you just have to pick the winner of the game. There have only been six instances where the favorite won the game straight up but failed to cover the number. Those outcomes occurred in 2009, 2005, 2004, 1996, 1989 and 1976.

    In the 2014-15 Super Bowl between New England and Seattle, the closing consensus line was pick 'em, which was the first in the NFL finale. The Patriots rallied for a 28-24 victory over the Seahawks.

    Oddsmakers were on the money with their numbers in two Super Bowls, which produced pushes or ties. Those matchups took place in 1997 and 2000.

    Will you go back to cash it or keep it as a souvineer as some people often do.  Tough choice if the BROWNS actually pull it off.....if the NFL makes it to SB 55.

    How long after you have a bet on the game do you have to cash your winning ticket in?

    Sometimes they are printed out on the ticket like a check under these circumstances they might be lenient on cashing procedures if you end up with a winner you could probably call the sportsbook you purchased it from.

    I still have some  chips from a few "AC" Atlantic City casinos from long ago some that are gone now that I kept as souvenirs.  Most of the long running casinos are pretty cool about satisfying the customers.

    I have kept many $10 chips as souvenirs.  Probably $400 worth from around the world.  I keep telling myself to mount them in some sort of display to hang on the wall.

    Maybe it's time to do that.  I have used a local frame shop a dozen or so occasions.  They could come up with something pretty cool.

    If everybody had like minds, we would never learn.

    That would be nice.....mine are somewhere in my big rolltop desk drawers just rattling around.  Some go back before we were married 39 years ago.

    I have a winning ticket from a Lake Tahoe Casino that I visited back in 1999.   I might have won like 5 bucks.  Do you think they would honor it?

    I'd bet they probably would.... unless you want it for a souvenir.

    It was only a $5.00 win.  It has been a souvenir now for 21 years, no reason to change that....and I am not scheduled to go back to Tahoe any time soon.

    I'm sure they would be more than happy especially now if you booked a trip to Tahoe to cash your win......they might even comp you with some chips.  😉

    Well, we'll always have lying about "Left Wing Extremists" to bet on!

    Cops [both state and federal] always knew white right-wing extremists were the real threat during the protests.

    Yes, read the link - the hubbub about "antifa" was a deliberate lie [not in the least because there is no such "nationwide" single organization] for political gain.
