No -1200 (12/1)

13. Will 'Left Shark' Make An Appearance During Halftime Show?
TwitterYes 15/1
Left Shark was all the rage during Katy Perry's performance last year, but I wouldn't bet on it making an appearance with Coldplay and Beyonce.

10. Will There Be An Earthquake During The Game?
Getty ImagesIn order for said earthquake to count should it occur, it has to be mentioned by the broadcasting team. Let's hope people aren't hoping for an earthquake to play out in front of a nation.

9. How Many Times Will Cam Newton Do The Open Shirt Superman Motion?
Getty ImagesUnder 2.5 (-140, 5/7)
Considering how much Cam Newton enjoys to ham it up, it's fair to assume he'll bust out the Superman move at least three times if things are going well for Carolina.

7. Will Peyton Manning Announce His Retirement During Postgame Interview?
Getty ImagesNo -1000 (1/10)
