Riley Green to Headline Grey Cup Half Time Show: Betting Odds and 113th Grey Cup Highlights

Get Ready for the 113th Grey Cup: More Than Just Football

The anticipation is reaching a fever pitch as we count down the final days until the 113th Grey Cup. While the clash on the gridiron promises to be a high-scoring shootout, the excitement extends far beyond the final score. From high-stakes MVP predictions to the glitz and glamour of the Grey Cup half time show, there is plenty for fans and bettors to dive into.

The Matchup: Alouettes vs. Elks

The Montreal Alouettes enter the championship as the clear favorites, having maintained the shortest odds throughout the season. However, the Edmonton Elks are riding a wave of historic momentum, looking to pull off a stunning upset on Sunday.

If you’re looking at the player markets on FanDuel, the spotlight is firmly on the quarterbacks:

• Davis Alexander: The current favorite to take home the Grey Cup MVP title (+105).
• Cody Fajardo: The Elks’ signal-caller is the primary challenger at +200.

The Main Attraction: The Grey Cup Half Time Show

While the X’s and O’s are vital, the Grey Cup half time show is where music and sport collide. This year, the stage belongs to American country sensation Riley Green. Known for his authentic sound and chart-topping hits, Green is set to bring a high-energy performance to the stadium.

Betting on the Setlist: Which Song Comes First?

For those who love a novelty bet, FanDuel has introduced a fascinating market: Which song will Riley Green open with?

Despite “Worst Way” being one of his most streamed tracks on Spotify (surpassing 500 million streams), it isn’t the favorite in the betting world, sitting at +390. Instead, “Round Here” is the heavy favorite at -370.

This prediction is backed by data from Setlist.fm, which shows that Green has consistently opened his “Cowboy As It Gets” tour dates with “Round Here” throughout the year. If history repeats itself, the crowd can expect a familiar start to the festivities.

Beyond the Music: Novelty Markets

If you’re not a country music buff, there are other ways to get in on the action. From the simple 50/50 thrill of the coin toss (Heads or Tails) to specific game-day milestones, the 113th Grey Cup offers a variety of ways to engage with the game.

Whether you are cheering for the Alouettes to secure the trophy or waiting for Riley Green to hit the first chord of the halftime show, this Sunday promises to be an unforgettable event in Canadian sports history.
