I wanted to place a bet online for a Super Bowl prop bet, but is this legal? I've tried to find the answer but there doesn't seem to be a definitive answer.

If you are in America it is against the law to bet online

Well, if you place the bet online from the state where online gambling is prohibited then it will be illegal.. There are some states that prohibit an online betting..

yes internet betting is legal because its sites are based out of places were sport betting is legal (ex. las vegas, bahamas, ect.)

That would depend on where you are located. You can find a list of betting sites, which operate legally on http://www.officialsportsbetting.com
However, it still might be illegal for you, depending on your location and local laws.
