Taylor Swift’s Super Bowl bets involve a proposal from Kelce
February 4, 2024 – 10:29 AM PST
(Reuters) – While Taylor Swift has not revealed if she will jet across the Pacific Ocean to cheer on boyfriend Travis Kelce at the Feb. 11 Super Bowl in Las Vegas, that has not stopped online sportsbooks from offering bets that revolve around her presence at the game.
Novelty bets around major sporting events are nothing new but a number of sports betting companies decided to have some fun with the Swift-Kelce craze after the Kansas City Chiefs punched their Super Bowl ticket.
One of the bolder wagers that can be made is being offered by FanDuel Canada, which is allowing people to bet on whether Chiefs tight end Kelce will propose to the pop superstar at the Super Bowl.
With a week to go until the reigning Super Bowl champion Chiefs face the San Francisco 49ers, FanDuel Canada said the “Will Travis Kelce pop the question?” market is split at 70% yes and 30% no.
“At FanDuel Canada, we are always looking for ways to keep our customers engaged in major moments such as the Super Bowl,” the FanDuel Canada Trading Team said in an email to Reuters.
“Our trading team has been working hard to offer markets on all things halftime show, coin toss, the national anthem and even Taylor Swift specific markets.”
Swift has attended several Chiefs games this season but her presence at the Super Bowl is in question given the “Anti-Hero” singer has a Feb. 10 concert in Tokyo followed by a run of shows in Australia starting on Feb. 16 in Melbourne.
Still, BetUS has no shortage of zany Swift-related prop bets — which are wagers in sports betting not tied to the outcome of a game — including whether the Grammy-winning artist and Kelce will announce their first pregnancy at the Super Bowl.
BetUS also has odds on how many times Swift will be shown on camera during the Super Bowl, if her and Kelce will be shown kissing after the game and whether the game’s most valuable player will mention her in his speech.
While the Halftime Show, which this year will feature Grammy-winning artist Usher, is traditionally the focus of non-game related prop bets, BetUS feels the interest in Swift could potentially change that.
“The volume of bets on Taylor Swift props might – for at least this year – give the Halftime Show a literal run for its money in terms of betting volume,” Tim Williams, director of public relations for BetUS, told Reuters.
“Sportsbook, including us here at BetUS.com, really owe it to Taylor Swift this year for bringing the industry millions of dollars in additional revenue.”

Introduction:
On February 11th, the Super Bowl will take place in Las Vegas, and fans are eagerly awaiting the game to see if Kansas City Chiefs tight end, Travis Kelce, will propose to his girlfriend, Taylor Swift. Although Swift’s attendance at the game is uncertain, online sportsbooks have not hesitated to offer novelty bets surrounding her potential presence. This trend of incorporating celebrities into betting markets is not new, but it has gained momentum with the Swift-Kelce craze. Let’s take a closer look at some of the unique wagers being offered.

FanDuel Canada values customer engagement during major events like the Super Bowl, and their trading team is constantly looking for new and exciting markets to offer.
Swift’s Schedule:
While Taylor Swift has been a regular attendee at Chiefs games this season, her presence at the Super Bowl is uncertain.

BetUS, another prominent sports betting company, has not held back in offering a range of Swift-related prop bets. These prop bets focus on various aspects, including Swift’s screen time during the Super Bowl, the possibility of her and Kelce being shown kissing after the game, and even whether the game’s Most Valuable Player (MVP) will mention her in his speech. The availability of these bets showcases the growing demand for non-game related prop bets, especially during the halftime show.
Conclusion:
As the Super Bowl approaches, the anticipation of Taylor Swift’s possible appearance continues to grow. Sportsbooks have capitalized on this excitement by offering a variety of novelty bets related to her and Travis Kelce. Whether it’s betting on a proposal, Swift’s screen time, or other potential surprises, these wagers add an extra layer of excitement and entertainment for fans.
