"Come on, tails!" yells Al Rinehart.
Rinehart, and two others at his table, have money that the coin toss will land on tails.
It's one of many bets they have on Sunday's game at the Winner's Circle in New Haven.
"To come here and do stuff like this, it's nice," says Rinehart.
It wasn't possible before the summer of 2019, but the legalization of sports betting and sportsbooks has revolutionized the football industry.
"We've had just shy of 2,500 bets placed on this game alone," says David Doyle, General Manager at Winner's Circle.
Doyle says bets ranged anywhere from $5 to the maximum, to in the thousands.
