Solid Proposition

Your Guide to Vegas Super Bowl Revelry

Let’s assume you’ve got no major horse in this race (this race = the Super Bowl). In order to make this 6-hour ordeal worthwhile, we’ve compiled the best places to watch the game, and (thanks to advances in gambling science) the appropriate Internet prop bet to make at each venue. You’ve always wanted the chance to double down on Madonna…

Viewing Party at Crazy Horse III
HORSEPLAY

Viewing Party at Crazy Horse III

You’re approaching Sunday’s game with a purely... observational interest. To help: Crazy Horse’s BBQ-fueled open bar, on tap for the game’s first quarter. (Be sure to wet-nap before tipping your server.)
Matching Prop Bet: Will Madonna be wearing fishnet stockings at any point during the halftime show? (Yes -120)

The Sky Villa at Palms
SKY HIGH

The Sky Villa at Palms

It’s hard to know who might pop in for Super Bowl weekend. To cover all bases come game day, you’ll rent this 9,000-square-foot penthouse duplex overlooking the city. You’ve always wanted to watch Gronkowski score from a glass-enclosed jacuzzi.
Matching Prop Bet: Color of Gatorade bath: Orange (+200)

Samba and Sangria at Jaleo
JALEO SHOT

Samba and Sangria at Jaleo

Best part about the Super Bowl: it coincides with Jaleo’s happy hour (4:30 to 7pm). Which means fried dates wrapped in bacon and sangria through pregame and beyond.
Matching Prop Bet: Will Kelly Clarkson’s bare belly be showing during the national anthem? (Yes -300)

Mesa Grill’s Private Room
PRIVATE EYES

Mesa Grill’s Private Room

Watching one game: insufficient. Enter Mesa Grill’s private room for 40, where you’ll monitor cross-sport plays on the video wall at the Caesars sportsbook from a glass enclosure. And you were going to DVR the elephant polo playoffs in Burma.
Matching Prop Bet: Wayne Rooney goals vs. Brandon Jacobs touchdowns (Line: Jacobs -300)

Hyde Three-Quarter Open Bar
HYDE AND SEEK

Hyde Three-Quarter Open Bar

You’ve basked in full nights of fountain-spewing magic at this courtyard/lounge in the Bellagio. Instead, we offer three 15-minute quarters of endless Tuscan small plates during Sunday’s open bar. The fountain is still there, too.
Matching Prop Bet: Who will the MVP thank first?
Teammates: +200
God: +350
Owner: +350

The Skybox at Aria
BOXED IN

The Skybox at Aria

Picture a hybrid beast of living room and gambling shrine—137 TVs, leather couches, the option of nabbing pulled-pork sliders from a takeaway window between bets (convenient for bridging the sporting world, one prop at a time).
Matching Prop Bet: Total points: Carmelo Anthony vs. Giants (Line: Giants -1.5)
