The all-elusive safety has had some terrific value in recent Super Bowls. The payout is $1000 for every $100 bet depending on the sportsbook should a safety be scored.

From 2009 to 2014 there was a safety scored in practically every Super Bowl during that stretch.

Coming into Super Bowl 60, there hasn't been a safety scored in 12 years. Hard to believe after that hot stretch.
