Posted by Is it the Super Bowl or the Taylor Swift Bowl?
Either way, there’s plenty of action for bettors when it comes to the matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers.
Obviously, you can throw some money at the straight-up winner, the spread and the point total. However, Super Bowl LVIII: Taylor’s Version has more than a handful of novelty bets that might be worth a sprinkle.
Chiefs superstar tight end Travis Kelce and Swift began a courtship in the summer of 2023. After the usually fiercely private Swift declared to the world that “that’s my man,” her presence at Chiefs games, at one point, actually impacted the odds during the regular season.
Fast-forward to February, and the Swift-Kelce Love Story is still dominating the media — and now, it’s affecting Big Game betting.
Let’s take a look at the bets that could make you a Mean buck beyond your Wildest Dreams and a pick from Jason McIntyre.

Insight from Jason McIntyre:
Times Taylor Swift showed during broadcast live shots (Over/Under 4.5)
If you’re watching the game with any diehard Swifties, they’ll be rooting for Taylor Swift shots every 30 minutes — assuming she attends the game after her concert in Japan.
You never want a fan to upstage the game, but 4.5 seems a little bit light. If the Chiefs win, are we including shots on the field during the celebration?
Give me the Over!
PICK: Over 4.5 times Taylor Swift is shown during live broadcast shots
