Super Bowl Gatorade Color History
Now outside of pure speculation, it is fair to look at which Gatorade color each of these teams used in their most recent Super Bowl victories. The Eagles used yellow, and the Chiefs used orange. So with research now more related to the color wheel than anything else, each of the previous Gatorade colors these teams used is quite similar to their team colors. This could be a sign.
| Super Bowl No. | Winning Team | Color |
|---|---|---|
| 47 | Baltimore Ravens | None |
| 48 | Seattle Seahawks | Orange |
| 49 | New England Patriots | Blue |
| 50 | Denver Broncos | Orange |
| 51 | New England Patriots | None |
| 52 | Philadelphia Eagles | Yellow |
| 53 | New England Patriots | Blue |
| 54 | Kansas City Chiefs | Orange |
| 55 | Tampa Bay Buccaneers | Blue |
| 56 | Los Angeles Rams | Blue |
As you can see above, blue has been used in two of the last three years while making an appearance four times in the last 10 Super Bowls. Orange has been used three times in the last 10 seasons and five times over the last 20 years, which is the most over that span.
Gatorade Bath Prediction
Orange seems like a quality bet here. The +300 odds aren’t bad considering that Kansas City used this color when it won the Super Bowl a few years ago. Also, as mentioned in the previous section, orange has been the most popular Super Bowl Gatorade color over the last 20 years.
Yes, this prop bet is meant for entertainment purposes more than an actual money-making opportunity, but “orange” seems like an educated guess for those looking to have some fun with this wager.
The Pick: Orange
