The Super Bowl coin toss is one of the most famous prop bets, and one that always receives a ton of action from the betting public. Head or tails? It’s a 50-50 proposition and one of the first bets to cash every year.
It also attracts some wagers from bettors with money burning a hole in their pocket.
A bettor at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas dropped $253,000 on the coin toss to be heads at -103 odds — the largest reported wager on the coin toss, and one of the bigger reported six-figure wagers on the game at sportsbooks.
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp called tails, San Francisco 49ers Hall of Fame QB Joe Montana flipped the coin and it landed on heads — making this bettor more than $245,000 richer.
Earlier in the week, a bettor at Caesars in Iowa wagered $100,000 on tails.
The Seahawks closed as 4.5-point favorites against the New England Patriots in Super Bowl 60.
