The national anthem has been played/performed prior to every Super Bowl except for Super Bowl 11 – Vikki Carr only sang America the Beautiful. Betting on the national anthem is still a somewhat new thing, though.

The first time sportsbooks offered odds on the length of the national anthem at the Super Bowl was in 2007, when Billy Joel performed The Star-Spangled Banner. Since then, it has grown into one of the most popular Super Bowl prop bets.

The NFL announced on January 18 that country music star Reba McEntire will perform the national anthem at Super Bowl 58 in Las Vegas, Nevada on Sunday, February 11. You can find the betting lines for Reba’s anthem below as well as all the past Super Bowl national anthem betting lines and results.

The performance of the national anthem at the Super Bowl really took a turn with Whitney Houston at Super Bowl 25. Houston’s anthem went for 1 minute and 56 seconds and we’ve only seen one performance go less than 1 minute and 30 seconds since then—Jewel at Super Bowl 32, who went for 1 minute and 27 seconds.

Prior to Houston, the average length was just 1 minute and 23 seconds.

Super Bowl 58’s national anthem will be performed by Reba McEntire, and the over/under on length is just 90.5 seconds. This is the lowest over/under we have ever seen for a Super Bowl national anthem. The next lowest was 94 seconds.
