As we all know, Super Bowl coin toss history is completely random as there is virtually a 50/50 chance of the coin landing on heads or tails. However, according to Vince Bohbot (executive vice president at The Highland Mint in Florida, where the Super Bowl coin is made), the weight of each side of the coin can vary ever so slightly depending on the coin’s design.

Did you miss it? The most dramatic moment in sports this week? You mean to tell me you missed the coin toss at the NFL Combine that would determine if the Philadelphia Eagles or the Indianapolis Colts would own the 14th pick in the upcoming draft?

Let’s catch you up: Because both teams finished last season with 8-8 records and the same strength of schedule (.492), a coin toss would be necessary to determine the order of the 14th and 15th overall selections in the 2017 NFL Draft.

Seriously, this was all the rage on Friday morning. There were photos of the coin, which had the Minnesota Vikings logo on it because they traded their first rounder to the Eagles for Sam Bradford:

There was this funny tweet from the Eagles about the advice they were getting on calling heads or tails:

Fans — yes, fans! — even showed up to watch the event:

One intrepid reporter even livestreamed the toss, and so did the Eagles:

And here’s the huge nail-biting moment. Eagles VP Howie Roseman was so excited after the coin came up Vikings. The crowd? Not so much:

The reaction was so beautiful. Try not to get too emotional:

And then … it was over.

Fin.

Sometimes the simplest bets are the most fun. Red or black? Heads or tails?

Coin Toss Super Bowl 2020

The focus today is on the latter, as Super Bowl LV between the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Kansas City Chiefs gets underway. The Super Bowl coin toss to start the game each year is the most popular prop bet of all.

Was the coin toss heads or tails?

There’s a ton of hoopla before, during and after each Super Bowl. So if you stepped away to go to the bathroom or grab a beverage – you may have missed the result of whether the coin toss landed on heads or tails.

Update: The Chiefs called “heads” and were correct as it landed on “heads.” It was the third time in the last four Super Bowls that it landed on “heads.” The all-time Big Game score for heads vs. tails is now: Tails 29, Heads 26.

Here were the coin toss odds prior to the game from top US sportsbooks like DraftKings, FanDuel and BetMGM.

Coin toss strategy

2017 Super Bowl Coin Toss Results Saturday

The coin toss is the ultimate 50-50 proposition. So you wouldn’t think there would be any strategy behind betting on it, right?

Well, most folks are superstitious with this sort of stuff.

Tails has actually been the victor at the majority of Super Bowls so far. In the previous 54 Big Games, the coin came up tails 29 times. Heads came up 25 times.

The coin came up tails four times in a row, from 2014 to 2017. This came on the heels of it landing on heads from 2009 through 2013.

You can also parlay the coin toss outcome to the Super Bowl winner, though that might not be the best option. Only 25 times out of 54 tries has the team that won the coin toss also won the game.
