Whenever the Super Bowl comes around, there are always wild props to bet. For example, you can wager on what song the halftime performer will sing first. For Super Bowl XLVI, the most exciting and profitable prop was how the first points would be scored.

The odds were at 50 to 1 and even 75 to 1 in some places for the first points coming from a safety. Interestingly enough, a safety was how the Giants scored first against the Patriots. One person made $50,000 from a $1,000 bet.
