What jumps out about this year's Super Bowl Gatorade colour odds? A few things:
- "Yellow/Lime or Green" is two colours within one pick. It has the second shortest odds, but it nonetheless gives us an opportunity to cover two possible colours with just one wager.
- Like with Yellow/Green, "Red/Pink" feels like it will allow us to pick two colours at once. It not only has the second longest odds on the board, but also is the primary colour of the Kansas City Chiefs. If "Eagles green" shortened the odds for Yellow/Green, why is Red/Pink lagging so far behind?
- "Water/Clear" is a very live longshot.
Our reactions to the 2025 Super Bowl Gatorade bath colour odds are one thing. Recent results are another. What might the Gatorade colours from past Super Bowls tip us off to for this year's shower?
Super Bowl Gatorade Colour History
- Orange is the most historically predominant Super Bowl Gatorade shower colour. Over the past 20 years, it has appeared five times.

- Blue popularity has picked up recently: Blue Gatorade was used three times in the eight NFL Championship Games between 2015 and 2022.
Other Super Bowl Gatorade Bath Colour Trends
- There have been instances where no Gatorade bath has occurred. If you're placing a real-money bet on this market, be sure to read the house rules to see how the bookmaker will grade "None."
- Entering 2021, Gatorade publicly shared internal sales data naming its Top 5 Most Popular Flavors in the United States. They were, in reverse order, Orange, Glacier Freeze, Lemon Lime, Fruit Punch, and Cool Blue. We would be lying if we said we weren't surprised that Cool Blue has spent time as the #1 overall most popular flavor, but nonetheless, it's one of two shades of Blue listed.
