“I’m dreaming of a white Christmas,” was crooned in 1942 by Bing Crosby in one of the most iconic holiday songs ever recorded, but for some, that dream comes with betting odds attached.
This year, entertainment sportsbooks have turned nostalgia into numbers, posting lines on when and if snow will actually fall on December 25th. From Washington D.C. to Glasgow, players are wagering not just on the magic of the season, but on the meteorological reality of it.
Betting On A White Christmas
Snow on Christmas Day 2025
- New York (JFK International) – Yes +150
- Boston (Logan International) – Yes +150
- Montreal (Mirabel Airport) – Yes –130 | No –110

- Roof of the White House (DC) – Yes +200
- Washington, DC (Dulles International) – Yes +200
*Must occur by Dec 25, 2025
Each of the above North American cities are forecasted for snow on Christmas Day except for Washington, DC, where wagers will payout at 2-to-1 if snowflakes fall on the roof of the White House or at Dulles International Airport.
What’s intriguing is that BetUS is featuring multiple entertainment prop bets asking if there will be a white Christmas in New York City, and the odds are not identical.

Christmas NFL Betting
Betting on NFL Christmas Day games is a tradition that dates back to the 1970s, which now features three games on December 25th, just like Thanksgiving.
When NFL schedule makers put together these three games for Christmas Day, they were likely expecting some hefty playoff implications to be attached.
Dallas Cowboys at Washington Commanders
- Kickoff: 1:00 PM EST (Netflix)
- Spread: Cowboys –3.5 (Even) | Commanders +3.5 (–120)
- Total: Over 50.5 (–110) | Under 50.5 (–110)
The Cowboys are still alive in the postseason hunt, but their elimination is all but a formality at this point. In fact, Dallas could be eliminated this weekend before their Xmas Day game begins if specific scenarios play out.
The winner of Dallas vs. the Commanders will have zero impact on the playoff standings.
Detroit Lions at Minnesota Vikings
- Kickoff: 4:30 PM EST (Netflix)
- Spread: Lions –3.5 (–110) | Vikings +3.5 (–110)
- Total: Over 49.5 (–110) | Under 49.5 (–110)
The Lions are clinging to slim playoff hopes and will need the win against the Vikings to keep pace in the NFC. A loss to Minnesota could mean their elimination.
Denver Broncos at Kansas City Chiefs
- Kickoff: 8:15 PM EST (Prime)
- Spread: Broncos –6 (–115) | Chiefs +6 (–105)
- Total: Over 40.5 (–110) | Under 40.5 (–110)
This AFC West matchup should’ve been for playoff seeding and potentially the division crown, but KC’s playoff bubble has already burst, and Patrick Mahomes is out for the remainder of the season.
Look for Denver to cover the 6 points and move on to secure the AFC’s top seed on the 25th.
