The Queen City is not the only place falling in love with the Cinderella story of the 2021 Cincinnati Bengals.
In Las Vegas, sportsbooks are seeing the public flock to bet on Cincinnati in Super Bowl 56.
The Bengals are currently 4-point underdogs to the Los Angeles Rams, according to Tipico Sportsbook.
Early sharp money on the Rams moved the spread to 4.5 last week. Since then, recreational (or public) money has come in on the AFC Champions.

“Bookmakers have been a little surprised just how much the public has been betting the Bengals,” said Ben Fawkes, VP of Digital Content at VSiN Sports Betting Network.

In a Tweet Wednesday, Fawkes said that 63% of the bets and 59% of the money at Draft Kings is on the Bengals at +4.5.
“The public is loving Cincinnati.” Golden Nugget Sportsbook Director Tony Miller said. “Everyone is playing them right now."

THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. -- With another $1 million worth of incentives in his contract and free agency a month away, Odell Beckham Jr. could stand to make a lot of money in Super Bowl LVI.
So could Drake.
According to his Instagram account, the rapper and close friend of Beckham's has bet nearly $1.26 million in Bitcoin on the Los Angeles Rams and their star receiver in Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals.
"Man," Beckham said with a laugh when asked Friday about the wagers, "I've got to come through for him."
On Thursday, Drake posted pictures to his Instagram account of three bets. He made a money-line wager on the Rams to win outright, risking more than $471,000 -- when converted from Canadian to U.S. dollars -- for a payout of more than $711,000. The other two bets were on Beckham to top 62.5 receiving yards and score at least one touchdown, with Drake risking nearly $393,000 on each for payouts of nearly $711,000 and over $844,000.
If Drake wins all three bets, he would receive a total payout of $2.267 million for a profit of just over $1 million. The caption in his post read, "All bets are in on the family." Beckham appeared in the video for Drake's 2020 hit "Laugh Now Cry Later."
