Gladys Knight managed to stir up controversy with her performance of the National Anthem at Sunday night’s Super Bowl. People bet on whether her rendition was over or under one-minute and 50 seconds long, but it took a while to determine just how long it was because she had belted out the last word, “brave,” twice.
BetOnline.ag Sports Book Brand Manager Dave Mason told USA that at the end of the first “brave” it had lasted a minute and forty-nine seconds, but after the second, it was over two minutes. The website ended up paying out people who bet that it would be over, and those who bet that it would be under.
It goes to show you that people will bet on just about anything.
