But according to boston.com , there are nearly 1,000 different prop bets available.  Here are just a few. The National Anthem singer will be Pink.  Every year there is a prop wager on how long  the song will take.  The bet is over 2 minutes and under 2 minutes.  And you can also  bet on what color hair will the singer will come out with.  The choices are blonde, pink, blue, brown, and green.  The odds onto pink hair are 2 to 1 .
