Fantasy BFFs

Gregg Sussman and Frank Stampfl are joined by Jim Day as they go over some of the more unusual prop bets heading in to Super Bowl 53\. SOme of the props the guys look at include if anyone will take a knee or raise a fist during the National Anthem, and if anyone will use the term "Hotlanta" when talking about the city of Atlanta. Another Atlanta themed prop bet is whether or not any player will do "The Dirty Bird" dance when they score a touchdown. Looking at more political props, the guys question if the winning team will visit the White House, and also if Maroon 5 lead singer, Adam Levine, will take a knee during the Halftime Show.
