BetUS is one of the few online sportsbooks that will be taking bets on the Gatorade bath color at this year's Super Bowl from all US states. While popular, most state regulators prohibit bets on this time honored Super Bowl tradition with a few exceptions. BetUS holds an international license and has been taking wagers from those 18 and up in the US for 30 years now.
States Where Regulators Allow Betting on the Gatorade Bath
Betting on the Gatorade bath is only permitted at state regulated websites in only some U.S. states where sports betting is regulated. This means if you have a FanDuel account in any of these states, you can bet this particular prop there. Otherwise, BetUS and local bookies provide another option.
These states now allow betting on the Gatorade bath via regulated sites like FanDuel, DraftKings and BetMGM:
- Illinois
- Louisiana
- New Jersey
- Washington DC
- West Virginia
- Wyoming
- Ontario (Canada)

History of the Gatorade Bath
The Gatorade bath is said to have originated from one of two incidents.
In the mid-80's when Jim Burt performed the action on Giants head coach Bill Parcells after being angered over the coach's treatment of him that week.
Burt insisted that Harry Carson be the one to dump the Gatorade on Parcells, because he was a favorite and wouldn't get in trouble.
Former Chicago Bears defensive tackle Dan Hampton insists it was he who invented the shower, not Jim Burt. In 1984, his team dunked Bears head coach Mike Ditka with a bucket of Gatorade upon clinching the NFC Central.
