New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick was booed by some fans during Idina Menzel's national anthem at Super Bowl XLIX. 

Earlier, Sportsbook suspended the prop bet for the length of Menzel's national anthem after it was suspected that an insider tipped off information from Menzel's rehearsals. The over/under had been set at 122.5 seconds, and after Sportsbook suddenly took multiple max bets on the over, it figured something was up.

Menzel was announced as the National Anthem singer on Jan. 16. This is the Frozen star's second time singing the song at a major American sports event recently, having also done the anthem at the 2014 MLB All-Star Game.
