Super Bowl fever is in full force and rightfully so as this years matchup most likely will be the most gambled single sporting event of all time. Although, I can say I am a bit worn out and emotionally perplexed after religiously betting NFL games week to week, my spirit is picking up and I am ready for one more run; hopefully I end the season on a high note. After doing some minor research, I’ve realized that pretty much every single aspect of the pageantry is fair game for wagerers. Have Fun!
