No game in the entire world of sports inspires more betting than the Super Bowl. Given the number of available props, the actual outcome of the game is inconsequential by comparison. You can bet on basically everything (including the National Anthem and the halftime show). The color of Gatorade with which the winning coach gets dumped is no exception. That prop is the one on which we will focus in this piece.

Super Bowl Gatorade Shower Previous Winners & Trends
Blue was the Gatorade of choice last year for the fourth time since records of this event started being kept in 2001 — but also for the fourth time in the span of just eight years and for the third time in the last four. Orange is the only other color with multiple dumps in the last 13 seasons, with 5. Dating back to 2001, Clear/Water is tied for second place with 4 — all coming in a 4-year span from 2005 through 2008. Yellow is next with 3 douses, most recently in Super Bowl 53 when the Philadelphia Eagles upset the New England Patriots.
Only 4 times since 2001 has the color of the Gatorade matched the winning team’s color scheme. Pittsburgh head coach Mike Tomlin’s clothes turned Yellow following Super Bowl 43, while New England head coach Bill Belichick has twice gotten Blue treatment and then Rams head coach Sean McVay was feeling Blue last February.
Only 4 times in the last 22 installments of the biggest game in American sports has the winning coach avoided seemingly certain doom. All 4 of those Super Bowls were decided either on the final play or in the last few seconds, thus not giving players necessary preparation time to issue a Gatorade bath.
Here is the list of the last 10 Super Bowl Gatorade shower colors:
Super Bowl Gatorade Shower Odds
Yellow/Green +165
Orange +300
Blue +400
Red/Pink +450
Purple +750
Clear/Water +750
None +1200
Unsurprisingly given that the Eagles are favored, Yellow/Green is the current favorite for Super Bowl 57 on Feb. 12. It is followed by Orange, Blue, Red/Pink, Purple, Clear/Water and no bath. Red/Pink would obviously be in line with the Chiefs’ color scheme, but as history shows it has never been the winner — not even when Kansas City triumphed a few years ago. So it is also no surprise to see Orange going off as the second favorite.

Super Bowl Gatorade Shower Picks and Predictions
Although Orange is the second favorite, it still has good value at +300. After all, we have some recent data to work with when it comes to making that pick. Orange is the all-time leader with 5 baths since records started being kept in 2001. All 5 of Orange’s appearances have come in the last 13 years. Blue is the only other color with multiple dumps during this 13-year stretch, with 4.
The fact that the Chiefs have a decent chance to win (+105 on the money line) and that their cooler had Orange Gatorade when they won Super Bowl 54, I’ll roll with Orange to continue its relative dominance.
