That's one expensive coin toss.
One bettor took a big loss on Super Bowl 58's opening coin flip. The individual placed a $40,000 wager with BetMGM that tails would be the result.
Instead, the coin came up heads, which meant the Kansas City Chiefs earned the right to defer the opening kickoff. Tails had been the result in six of the previous nine Super Bowls.
According to BetMGM, 53% of bettors placed wagers on the heads result. Bets could be placed on either result at -105 odds. Additionally, 51% of bettors had the San Francisco 49ers winning the toss.
