One of the biggest reasons casual fans enjoy the Super Bowl besides the commercials is the prop bets. In case you don’t know, prop bets are bets on occurrences that are mostly unrelated to the actual game taking place. I wanted to introduce you to a few Hip-Hop/TSS-related bets that will make your Sunday night even better. Add some more so we can have a nice healthy list come game time.

Black & Yellow – The song has taken a life of its own, so I’m wondering how many times will it get some play in front of the biggest Super Bowl we’ve ever seen.
