Super Bowl 59 Coin Toss Betting Handles

Betting Handle per BetMGM

Betting Handle per BetMGM

The outcome of the coin toss is a top 10 most bet-on prop at BetMGM. Every year, football bettors kick off the Super Bowl with anthem OVER/UNDERs and the coin toss, which is theoretically 50/50. It should also be 50/50 on which team wins the toss. That said, bettors love the Chiefs to win the opening coin toss, pushing 65% of the handle at BetMGM in that direction.

Recent Super Bowl Coin Toss Results

Over the last 10 years, tails has come up six times on the coin toss. Again, a coin toss is 50/50. Over time, the two, heads and tails, should regress to that mean of 50 percent. Right now, heads has some catching up to do.

Another interesting trend in recent years, the Kansas City Chiefs have won three of the last four Super Bowl coin tosses. They haven't always won with the same call, either. In 2021 and 2024 they successfully called heads, while the 2023 win was with tails. Consider this when your placing a first touchdown scorer bet.

Super Bowl Coin Toss Betting History

Since the first Super Bowl, heads has come up 28 times. Its longest streak is four Super Bowls in a row from 1990 to 1993. 

Tails has come up 30 times since the first Super Bowl in 1967. Its longest streak is also at four Super Bowls in a row, something that’s happened three times: 1998-2001, 2003-2006 and 2014-2017. 

Does The Coin Toss Impact The Super Bowl?

Maybe? But not in a positive way if so. The coin toss winner has only gone on to win the Super Bowl twice in the last 10 contests. But, both were the Chiefs in Super Bowl 57 and Super Bowl 58. So maybe Andy Reid and Kansas City have that devil magic on their side to win the coin toss, too.

What Is A Coin Toss Prop Bet?

Short for a proposition, a prop is a bet that doesn’t necessarily correlate with the final outcome of the game. The coin flip is a perfect example of a fun or exotic prop because it relies less on data and stats and more on chance.

You don’t have to check ATS standings or betting trends as you would for your money line bets or player props. Plus, teams that win the toss don’t always win the Super Bowl. For example, last year at Super Bowl 56, the Cincinnati Bengals won the toss but lost the game to the Los Angeles Rams.
