Watching the Super Bowl in Las Vegas is unique. Where else can you enjoy the game with friends, food and drink while simultaneously betting big on its outcome? Plus, in some cases, you can wager on the odds of who will win as well as indulge in making a few proposition bets—such as how many first downs a particular team will make or how many yards a kicker will punt the ball—to keep the action interesting (beyond the unique half-time commercials, of course). We’ve narrowed down Las Vegas’ sports books to a few of the best to enjoy game XLVI this Feb. 5.
