On bodogs there is line for Billy Joels national anthem at the beginning of the super bowl. Whether or not it will be over 1 minuit and 44 seconds. If I was friends with billy joel and he told how long he was going to sing for...couldnt you theoretically make millions. If for some reason someone gets a hold of how long his national anthem is going to be...it would be great to know ...we could all be rich =)

i like the under. actually i'd rather have him singing piano man at halftime than prince singing purple rain. is there a way we could make that happen? is it too late?

The books have a hedge against that, max bet on props such as that is usually $300 or so.

they have a minimum wager on the bets, which gives them the ability of changing the line and / or the odds to make sure to much money doesnt go on either side.

HE has sang this before. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C7qnMitnDSY ....world series went 1:57

seems like he'd have to alter it a bunch for a 13 second difference no? i wonder where bodog got the # from...

Hmm, and they're offering +140 on the over. I'll take that bet.

you should bet the house on it.

it also depends on the weather and the altitude. if it is very humid he could have trouble getting a deep breath and he could cut it short. and what if his asthma acts up??? :)

It was 1:57, however, he didnt start singing until 19 seconds into the video. So, this would put him under by 6 seconds.

Humidity is generally not a huge issue at 6:30 in Miami in the winter, though. The forecast doesn't seem to be negative, either.

does his anthem start w/ piano playing or "singing"?

According to bodog, it starts when Billy starts singing

this is the superbowll however and u would think it would be a bit longer. Google the avg length of Anthems during the SB and come to an avg

Betting the over/ under on the anthem? ok maybe I can see that, but actually trying to cap it and taking weather into account? wow. I have learned so much in my time here. this is great stuff.

Does humidity favor Heads or Tails? LOL.

were all sick.. very sick individuals!! GL on the coin toss and anthem... something tells me that my local guy wont be taking action on those!! :-(

Joel is pissed because he's just doing the anthem, instead of the halftime show. He's gonna sing the song, haul ass to his box, so he can drink and enjoy the game ...

I think this is crazy that you guys are trying to handicapp how long it will take Billy Joel to sing the national anthem.

Good luck with the bets...

Have you ever seen the movie Tin Cup? Degenerate gamblers will bet on anything.LOL

Put me down for under 1min 44sec.
Also i will take Tails both for 1 unit.
