What is the rules on Total if an NFL game tie? : Nominated Post

[mr.ed]

All bets are refunded, both totals and sides alike, as there was no clear victor in the game.

Vegas actually enjoys an occasional tie, as it provides them the opportunity of seeing ALL of their clients at the betting windows to get their refunds. They use tie games to build comraderie with their clients as generally both sides are in a reasonably good mood and are more willing to have some friendly banter.
