No sporting event is scene by more people around the world then the Superbowl. The game of football has been around since the 1800s but the Superbowl has only been in existence since January 15th 1967. It is the culmination of a long season of teams playing against each other to be crowned, champions of the NFL. Even people who do not watch football all season long tend to get into the festivities of Superbowl Sunday. So having a party with friends has become quite the event. The group is usually divided between those fans cheering for the AFC team and those cheering for the NFC team. If you are planning to host a party I suggest you start your plans early so you can host a fun afternoon for you and your friends.
First, you should make a guest list. It is fun to have fans for both teams it makes for a more competitive day. A Superbowl party doesn't have to be men only. There are many women who enjoy football and who says the party has to be just football. I suggest you don't invite more people than you can accommodate to watch the game comfortably. The main reason for the party is the game.
Secondly, you want to decorate, there are a wide range of Superbowl decorations available today at most party stores and usually they are quite reasonable. You can also use sports paraphernalia that you may have around the house, be creative. It is fun to use the colors and logos of the two teams playing in the Superbowl. Also this is the perfect time to choose paper and plastic utensils in the team colors.
Most important, the food and drink, as much as the Superbowl is about football it is also about eating. You want to have adequate quantity and a good mix. All kinds of dip and chips are called for. Guacamole, salsa and chips are always popular. Hot Wings are one of the latest sensations. To cut down on labor for the hostess I suggest deli platters or giant Sub sandwiches. Remember your guests will be drinking so plenty of food is a must. As for drinks beer is most popular, but wine and wine coolers are always a crowd favorite. It is also imperative that you have a good mix of non alcoholic drinks. A few sweets is good for those guests with a sweet tooth. Most important, have plenty of ice. Because the Superbowl is in February people tend to forget the ice.
Lastly, have plenty of TVs placed around so people can watch the game wherever they are sitting. Move TVs from other rooms if you can. If you were planning on purchasing a large screen TV this is the perfect excuse. Many retailers deliver the day of the Superbowl. Remember you are all there to watch the game.
