With Rocket Mortgage, they take all the people that had that square, and I think there's a drawing or something like that. You know that's the point at which you will know what numbers happened to randomly assign and you can come here and see you know what your chances are of being entered for a chance to win. Now this right here is a great place to press pause because when you play this game an you get your squares. So down here, remember, just for reference, this is the matrix, the heat map for only scores at the end of the quarter. I added in one less or two less depending on whether or not it said that there was a kick or two point conversion and I ended up with this larger data set.Īnd now the most common score is a touchdown for six, but then the second most common is a single point extra kick for one, and that changes things dramatically. Let's see how that changes things”, So I took that data that I downloaded from the Internet, which only included the scores after the extra point or the two point conversion. They're paying $50,000 after the six and then $50,000 after the seven.Īnd when I saw that, I thought, “that's pretty wild. Including let's say the Chiefs score first, get a touchdown that gives them six. That's an important difference they're paying after every score change. Where they're paying out $50,000 but not at the end of the quarter. They have a different version of Super Bowl squares. The numbers that end in 3, 0 and 7 at least have a better chance of paying off in the first quarter.īut the whole reason that I made this and the whole reason that I went down this path is because this year in 2021 there is a huge promotion going on in United States from Rocket Mortgage. Or over here the three- zero or seven-three. Very easy to get to those kinds of scores, combining maybe a touchdown and a field goal.Ī touchdown for seven and a field goal for three. Maybe a score of Ten to Zero or Ten to Twenty. Or even just a safety for two points.Īnd so the combinations of touchdowns and field goals leads to this traditional heat map where zero-zero is the best square. ![]() Or a field goal for three.īut then you also have over the last 54 Super Bowls, sometimes a touchdown with no extra point or a touchdown with two extra points. The reason that the square is not created equal is because in American football, the most common scores are a touchdown with a single extra point for seven points. I downloaded every score from every Super Bowl up to this point. Now the important thing to know here: all squares are not created equal.Īnd, just this crazy data mining exercise covering 54 years worth of data. ![]() That person gets $400 or something like that. Maybe $200 or $250, usually 200, because then at the end of Q4 they double up. Chiefs here at Zero.īuccaneers at 7 and whoever bought that qquare gets a pretty nice payout. ![]() So you take the last digit, so zero for the Chiefs, 7 for the Bucs. Let's just say this weekend, it's Chiefs 10 Bucks 7 at the end of the first quarter. What you do is at the end of each quarter: first quarter, second quarter, third quarter, and the end of the game, you take the score. Now this formula here uses the SEQUENCE function to generate 10 numbers and then SORTBY to sort them randomly.Īnd then the same formula up here but TRANSPOSE. ![]() You write your initials in and then after the squares are sold, some method to put the numbers one through 10 randomly down the left hand side. It's very important that these in the left column and top row are completely blank. In this classic game that's been played probably since Super Bowl one at VFW Halls, Super Bowl parties, and the workplace break room, we start out with 100 squares. Let's take a look as we're coming up to Super Bowl 55. Hey, this is going to be probably of more interest from my American friends.īut there's an interesting twist that happened this year on this longstanding game that's going to change the percentages.
