The Super Bowl is the biggest gambling event on the American sports calendar. People can bet on everything from who will win the game to whether Colts third-string tight end Bryan Fletcher will catch a pass for a two-point conversion.

There are hundreds and hundreds of "prop" bets available to bettors. In reviewing them for my journalistic purposes, I came across some rather interesting ones, which I will share with you below.

(Oh, and by the way, I guarantee Fletcher will catch not just one two-point conversion pass, but 11 of them. It's just a hunch I have. The Colts are going to try to pile on the points, and they will use all of their better players as decoys -- leaving Fletcher wide open on conversion attempt after conversion attempt. Consider it my stone-cold Super Bowl lock.)

The first score of the game will come via:
2-to-1 -- touchdown
3-to-1 -- field goal
20-to-1 -- safety
1,000,000-to-1 -- extra point

Will Rex Grossman leave the game at halftime to attend a Super Bowl party?
1-to-2 -- yes.
2-to-1 -- no.

Total gross passing yards by Rex Grossman:
2-to-1 -- under 150 yards
3-to-1 -- over 150 yards
1-to-1 -- they will all be quite gross and unsightly

Total passing yards by Peyton Manning:
-110 -- over 199.5 yards
-110 -- under 199.5 yards

The Colts player with the most touchdowns will be:
5-to-1 -- Marvin Harrison

Rex Grossman's first pass will be:
2-to-1 -- an incompletion
2-to-1 -- an interception
10-to-1 -- a tipped ball that miraculously finds its way into the arms of a Chicago Bears receiver

Adam Vinatieri will:
3-to-1 -- kick a game-winning field goal
5-to-1 -- miss a game-winning field goal to give Peyton Manning and the Colts the loss, thereby cementing his legendary status in New England

A moment of silence will be held before the game to remember:
2-to-1 -- Barbaro
5-to-1 -- some player's goldfish that died
2-to-1 -- anyone that Tank Johnson may have shot during pregame
