The final throes of Super Bowl 2026<\/a> were just the beginning of the excitement for millions of speculators and pool participants around the country.<\/p>\n

While Seattle Seahawks fans were celebrating their victory, there were also plenty of punters<\/a> who were exuberant when yellow-colored Gatorade<\/a> was poured on Mike Macdonald, the head coach of the Seahawks.<\/p>\n

Macdonald earned the bath when his Seahawks defeated the Patriots, 29-13, in the Big Game on Sunday.<\/p>\n

One of the most popular betting markets offered on Super Bowl Sunday, the Gatorade color prop has taken on a life of its own since the legalization of sports betting in 2018.<\/p>\n

Several states allow sportsbooks to offer the market, and most Super Bowl pick\u2019em pools require players to correctly pick the color of the Gatorade that is dumped on the winning coach.<\/p>\n

And since the game is over by the time the liquid hits the headset, thousands of these contests come down to whoever gets this prop right.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s winner, Yellow\/Lime, was offered at +275 odds before Super Bowl 2026 kicked off at 6:30 p.m. ET at Levi\u2019s Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif.<\/p>\n

Orange and Blue were the co-favorites at +250 odds.<\/p>\n

Super Bowl 2026: Gatorade Color Odds<\/p>\n

Orange +250<\/p>\n

Blue +250<\/p>\n

Yellow\/Lime +275<\/p>\n

Purple +700<\/p>\n

Red\/Pink +750<\/p>\n

Water\/Clear +1100<\/p>\n

Last year\u2019s winner was also Yellow\/Green, which broke a two-year winning streak for Purple.<\/p>\n

Blue Gatorade was dumped on the winning coach the previous two years, while Chiefs coach Andy Reid was doused in Orange Gatorade in 2020.<\/p>\n

Perhaps the most notorious story involving this off-the-wall prop was when late quarterback Jared Lorenzen allegedly tipped off his friends<\/a> about the color in the Giants\u2019 jug in 2007.<\/p>\n
