How to Bet on Gronkowski’s Kick

While Gronkowski will be kicking a field goal during Super Bowl LVIII as part of FanDuel’s “Kick of Destiny 2” promotion, you can’t directly bet on whether he makes or misses the kick.

FanDuel’s “Kick of Destiny” Promotion

FanDuel’s “Kick of Destiny” is back for its second year in a row, featuring none other than Rob Gronkowski. This year, the promotion centers around a simple premise⁚ will Gronk successfully kick a 25-yard field goal during a live Super Bowl LVIII commercial break?

While you can’t directly wager on the outcome of Gronk’s kick, FanDuel is offering a lucrative incentive for those who participate. Anyone who places a Super Bowl bet of $5 or more on FanDuel before the game will be eligible to win a share of $10 million in bonus bets if Gronkowski makes the field goal.

This means that even if Gronk misses (like he did last year), participants still have a chance to win big based on the outcome of their actual Super Bowl bets. It’s a win-win situation, adding an extra layer of excitement to the big game and the potential for a significant bonus payout.

Last year, despite Gronkowski missing the kick, FanDuel still honored the promotion, paying out the full $10 million in bonus bets to eligible participants. So, whether Gronk kicks it or flicks it, FanDuel bettors have a chance to cash in.

Gronkowski’s Kicking History

While renowned for his exceptional skills as a tight end, Rob Gronkowski’s kicking history is decidedly less illustrious. In fact, his on-field experience primarily boils down to a single, high-pressure attempt⁚ last year’s “Kick of Destiny” at Super Bowl LVII.

During that nationally televised moment, Gronkowski lined up for a 25-yard field goal attempt. Despite a spirited effort, his kick sailed wide left, leaving millions of FanDuel participants hoping for a miracle.

Adding to his limited kicking resume, Gronkowski also attempted another 25-yard field goal in the lead-up to Super Bowl LVIII. Unfortunately for fans of “Gronk spikes” and clutch kicks, this attempt also ended in disappointment, with the ball veering off course.

While his track record might not inspire confidence in a seasoned kicker, Gronk’s determination and the unpredictable nature of live events mean anything is possible. Will Super Bowl LVIII be the moment he defies expectations and boots his way into kicking legend? Only time will tell.

How to Participate in the Promotion

While placing a direct wager on Gronkowski’s “Kick of Destiny 2” isn’t an option, FanDuel has crafted a promotion allowing fans to win big based on the outcome. Here’s how to get in on the action⁚

Sign Up or Log In⁚ If you’re not already a FanDuel Sportsbook user, you’ll need to create an account. Existing users can simply log in.
Place a Super Bowl Bet⁚ To be eligible for the promotion, place a minimum $5 bet on any Super Bowl LVIII market. This could include the moneyline, point spread, over/under, or any of the numerous prop bets offered.
Make Your Prediction⁚ Once your Super Bowl bet is placed, you’ll have the opportunity to predict whether Gronkowski will make or miss his field goal attempt.

That’s it! You’re now in the running for a share of $10 million in bonus bets. If your Super Bowl bet wins and you correctly predict Gronk’s kick, you’ll receive a portion of the prize pool. Even if your Super Bowl bet loses, a correct prediction on the kick will still earn you a piece of the bonus bets.

Potential Payouts and Bonus Bets

FanDuel has sweetened the pot for Super Bowl LVIII with a massive $10 million bonus bet giveaway tied to Gronkowski’s “Kick of Destiny 2.” But how much could you potentially win?

The exact payout for correctly predicting Gronk’s kick depends on the total number of participants and the accuracy of predictions. With FanDuel expecting a large number of participants, the prize pool will be divided equally among all those who correctly predict the outcome of the kick.

Here’s how it works⁚ Let’s say 1 million people participate in the promotion, and 500,000 correctly predict Gronkowski’s kick. The $10 million prize pool would be divided equally among those 500,000 winners, resulting in a $20 bonus bet for each person.

Important Note⁚ Even if Gronkowski misses the kick, FanDuel will still distribute the $10 million in bonus bets to those who predicted a miss. This means you have two chances to win⁚ by correctly predicting the kick’s outcome and by winning your original Super Bowl wager.
