In the history of the Super Bowl coin toss, the coin has landed on heads 48% of the time and on tails 52% of the time. This is comparatively pretty even and the longest streak in Super Bowl history is the coin landing on heads five straight times. Though tails historically landed on more than heads, the coin has hit heads in four of the past five Super Bowls.
With the Super Bowl played in Arizona, the coin toss will be an honor for former Cardinal Pat Tillman. Pat Tillman heroically left his career with the Cardinals to serve in the U.S. army before tragically died due to friendly fire. Four scholars from Pat Tillman’s foundation will ceremoniously assist in the coin toss. Many called for Donna Kelce, the mother of Jason and Travis Kelce, to do the coin toss with both of her sons playing against each other, but rather the toss will continue to wonderfully honor the life and legacy left behind by Tillman.
The Chiefs will get to call heads or tails for the Super Bowl as the NFC is the host team for every odd numbered Super Bowl and the visiting team gets to call the coin flip. The Chiefs have six captains who will call the coin toss for the chiefs including Patrick Mahomes, Chris Jones, Travis Kelce, Tommy Townsend, Nick Bolton, and Jerick McKinnon. However, neither the Eagles of Chiefs may even want to win the coin toss. The last 8 winners of the coin toss have all ended up losing the Super Bowl. The last team to win both the coin toss and Super Bowl was the Seattle Seahawks when they destroyed the Broncos in Super Bowl XLVIII.
