Get your game faces on for this Super Bowl pool

Fans and non-fans alike can enjoy today’s Super Bowl even more with a friendly pool. Predict such things as who will score first and how long it will take Carrie Underwood to sing the national anthem.
Here are some more bets you’ll want to include. For entertainment purposes only, of course …
Which Pierre will touch the ball first? Incredibly, there are two playing — Garcon of the Colts and Thomas of the Saints. Since most people named Pierre are stuffed into gym lockers at an early age, the odds against this had to be astronomical.
will Peyton Manning’s brother Eli be shown on camera (over or under 2 1/2)? You can make the “why the long face” joke about him only once.
What color Gatorade will be poured over the winning coach’s head? Traditional, sticky yellow is the safe bet.
Will a member of The Who smash a guitar during the halftime show? Extra credit if you predict what muscle will be pulled when this happens.
How many times will The Who’s Pete Townshend do his legendary windmill move (over or under 5 1/2)? Just as long as he doesn’t repeat Bruce Springsteen’s crotch-slide into the camera from last year, we’ll all get through this together.
