Other than the game, the Golden Nugget has more than 235 betting propositions, including whether Madonna will wear a headset microphone during her halftime performance.

But this isn't your typical $5 office betting pool.

Tony Miller with the Golden Nugget told Local 2, "I've seen million-dollar wagers come over the counter. I've seen $500,000 wagers come over the counter. A $20,000 or $50,000 bet is not an uncommon wager during the Super Bowl."
