Grammy award winner Jon Batiste will take thousands of people’s attention ahead of Super Bowl 2025 on Sunday, with millions of dollars being wagered odd-ball props like the national Anthem, Gatorade color, the coin Toss and many more.
These wagers are available at many sportsbooks, including BetMGM Sportsbook in Canada, which is offering how long the anthem will last.
The Over/Under on the national anthem comes in at 120.5 seconds, with the Over being bet up to -150 and Under coming in at +115 odds.
BetMGM told The Post earlier in the week that 63 percent of tickets and 61 percent of the money were on the Over.
For the researchers out there, it’s worth noting that Batiste doesn’t always perform in the same manner.
Batiste sang the national anthem at the NBA All-Star Game in 2017 and took 2:07 (127 seconds) to vocalize his rendition of the Star-Spangled Banner.
He performed that version while sitting down and playing a piano..
At the 2017 US Open, though, he performed without a piano.
FanDuel Sportsbook in Canada is taking wagers on whether he will perform with a piano, with the “Yes” side coming in at -400 odds and “No” at +290.
Batiste almost always performs with a piano present, and there is a precedent of an artist using one during the anthem.

Billy Joel, Alicia Keys, and Lady Gaga have all used a piano during the national anthem in years past.
Expect Batiste to go Over prior to the 2025 Super Bowl, and it would be a shocker not to see the piano accompany him for the show.
