In this story:

Super Bowl LX may be over, but there is still a prop bet out there left to cash: the color of the Gatorade bath!

After the Seattle Seahawks beat the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LX, bettors turned their focus to the Gatorade bath for head coach Mike Macdonald and what color it would be.

What Gatorade Color Did the Seahawks Dump on Mike Macdonald?

The Seahawks dumped yellow Gatorade on Macdonald after knocking off New England in a 29-13 blowout. Prior to Super Bowl LX, yellow Gatorade was +260 to be the color dumped, which was second in the odds.

Seattle had a strong defensive performance from start to finish in this game, and it rode a huge game from Kenneth Walker III on the ground to its first Super Bowl win since beating Denver Broncos back in Super Bowl XLVIII.

Super Bowl Gatorade Color History

In Super Bowl history, the color of the Gatorade dumped has been pretty random, as the leader is orange (five times) while several colors have been dumped four times (purple, clear and blue). Last year, the Philadelphia Eagles dumped yellow Gatorade, the third time that color has been chosen.

Now, here's the history (dating back to Super Bowl 35) of this prop following the Seahawks' decision to dump yellow Gatorade on Sunday night.
