💀 Curse of the Super Bowl coin toss
The winner of the Super Bowl coin toss went on to lose the game in seven straight Super Bowls from 2016-22 before the Chiefs snapped that streak in back-to-back years.
However, perhaps a new Super Bowl coin toss curse has begun, as the Chiefs won the toss but lost the Big Game last year versus the Eagles.
🔮 Super Bowl coin toss predictions 2026
With tails being the outcome of six of the last 10 coin tosses, including last year's, heads is due in 2026. Let's play the probabilities for a bet that should have a 50/50 probability.
I'm riding with the slightly more popular play (51% of wagers at BetMGM) and picking heads to be the result of the Super Bowl 60 coin toss. Since I backed the Seahawks to win the game when I broke down who will win the Super Bowl, I'm also buying into the curse and targeting the Patriots to win the coin toss but lose the game.
