Las Vegas, NV (KXNT) - The largest bet on this year's Super Bowl is being taken, and it's going on the underdog.

Bet-M-G-M Thursday Night took a wager from a bettor in Nevada who placed two-point-three-million dollars on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as three-and-a-half point dogs.

If the Bucs cover, the person would win two-million-dollars. According to a company spokesperson, a bulk of the action has been on the favorites, the Kansas City Chiefs.

FanDuel and DraftKings also told ESPN that more than 75-percent of their wagers have been on the AFC Champion Chiefs. The Super Bowl is Sunday in Tampa, Florida.
