Nevada sports books have lost only twice on the Super Bowl in the past 20 years, most recently in 2008, when New York beat the Patriots, costing casinos a record $2.6 million.
Odds makers released numbers for next year’s Super Bowl before fans even had time to stumble back to their hotel rooms Sunday night.
RJ Bell of Las Vegas-based Pregame.com made the Patriots 7-to-1 favorites, with the 49ers and Denver Broncos following close behind at 8-to-1.
Gamblers wanted to see the odds for another Super Bowl blackout, Kornegay said, but even Vegas can’t offer that action.
“We have to stay on the field of play,” Kornegay said. “But I’m pretty sure that some of the offshore books will have that bet next year.”
