If you want to wager on the pregame coin toss for Super Bowl 60 — Patriots vs. Seahawks — you can. Several sportsbooks are offering a straight-up heads-or-tails market, and the odds make it essentially a pick ’em. Tails has come up six times in the last 10 Super Bowls, and DraftKings’ coin-toss prices (as of Feb. 4) reflect that even-money feel.

Fan Take: The fact that sportsbooks offer coin-toss props — and that they’re essentially pick ’em — shows how bettors look for any edge or entertainment value on game day. For NFL fans, it’s a reminder that even the smallest moments are monetized and can become part of the pregame spectacle, though the toss itself rarely dictates the eventual champion.
