Super Bowl 59 gets underway just after 6:30 p.m. ET with the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs facing off in a rematch of Super Bowl 57.

The Chiefs won that game after Harrison Butker kicked a game-winning field goal with eight seconds left. Now the Chiefs are looking to complete the threepeat they started with that victory.

The Super Bowl coin toss is a tradition that dates back to the first game in 1967. The coin toss determines which team will receive the opening kickoff and which team will have the choice of deferring to the second half. The team that wins the coin toss has a slight advantage in the game, as they are able to control the tempo of the game early on.

Over the past two Super Bowls, the Chiefs have won the coin toss and also gone on to win the game. Last year, the 49ers called tails and it ended up heads. The year prior, the Chiefs called tails and got it right.

This year, the Chiefs are again the visiting team and will have the chance to call heads or tails. The Eagles will then have the option of kicking off, receiving the kickoff, or deferring to the second half.

The coin toss is a small part of the Super Bowl, but it can have a big impact on the game. A win by the Eagles at the coin toss would give them a chance to start the game with the ball in their hands and set the tone for the rest of the game.
