Super Bowl is coming up fast (February 5th), 7 Tips for Throwing a great Super Bowl Party 2017
Here are some great tips from Grand Rental Station in Fairview for having a great Super Bowl Party
1. Spread the Word!
Right now a great way to invite people is through Facebook. They have just added some great user friendly tools that makes creating an event easy. Don’t forget to add the time, date, and address. A good rule of thumb when deciding how many to invite is makes sure everyone can sit comfortable in your home with a clear shot to the TV.
About a week or so before the big event make sure to get a count to ensure your guest are well fed. Don’t be shy to ask your guest to bring something. They will be grateful to help out.
2. Should You Invite the Whole Neighborhood?
…as long as everyone can sit comfortably with a clear shot of the TV. Don’t invite 100 people if your living-room can only fit 10. You really don’t want your guests crammed in like sardines. While you may be tempted to invite that friend whom you haven’t seen in years, your Super Bowl party is not the time to catch up on the last decade of your life or to reminisce about your 6th grade teacher. Refrain! Instead, invite him to meet you for a cup of coffee or a beer on another night. About a week before the big day, get a good estimate of the number of people who will actually show up. This will help you stock up on food and drinks. Don’t be shy to ask each friend to bring something. Your guests will be grateful to know they can help out. By telling them what you need, they won’t have to resort to guessing what will be most useful.
3. It’s All About the Place
Make sure your apartment or house is clean and welcoming when your guests arrive. If your place is a dump, or you’re still cleaning when they get there, it will totally put a damper on the party atmosphere! If you’re short on time, at least make sure that the living-room and bathroom are clean and close all the other doors. Set up your living room so it’s ready for a crowd. Take out any unnecessary clutter and make sure all of the chairs and sofas are facing the TV screen. Lay out food and drinks around the room so your guests can snack easily, regardless of where they are sitting. They’ll want to nibble all night long, without having to move and lose track of the game.
4.Feeding the Fans
An epic party needs finger-licking food. No Super Bowl party would be complete without some tasty finger snacks to enjoy during the game. Especially since watching football and cheering for your team will make a fan hungry. The Super Bowl only occurs once a year, so don’t hold back on the food. Buy, bake or beg a wide array of snacks and appetizers and lay them out for easy access. Make sure all of the food is finger-friendly. Nobody wants to deal with forks and knives when they’re busy screaming and gesturing at their team with a beer in their hands. Think chips, dips, wings, pizza and ribs. Don’t lay out all the food at once or you won’t have enough for refills. Leave refills in the kitchen so you can top off the empty bowls and keep your guests’ tummies satisfied at all times. You may want to rotate which foods you serve. Start with the pretzels and chips, then move on to pigs in a blanket, hot wings or ribs. Round out the final quarter with some sweets as you watch your team sail to victory! Not much ruins a party like running out of booze, and you certainly don’t want to have to make a beer run during a great play, so be sure to stock up on the beverages! With all of those beer commercials bombarding your guests, they’ll be working up a strong thirst for the suds. So pack your fridge(s) with lots of 6 packs and consider buying a keg – there’s no bigger crowd pleaser than an endless flow of beer on tap!
5. Everyone Loves a Good Game
Who says that football players should have all the fun on Super Bowl Sunday? To take your Super Bowl party to the next level, plan a few activities to entertain your guests during halftime or before the game starts. Spicing up your party with some games will ensure that even if The Game is a bore, your party will rock! For the commercial enthusiasts, invite your guests to keep track of their favorite commercials with a game of Super Bowl Ad Bingo. Print out game cards and hand them to your guests. After the game you can swap thoughts on your favorite commercials.
6.Some Team Spirit Decor is a Must
Simple decorations can be a great way to get everyone into the Super Bowl spirit. Setting the tone for the evening makes the experience much more fun! Try buying decoration in your team’s colors or throw in some football props to make your living room feel just like the sidelines. You have unlimited options. You can put up banners of the two competing teams on your wall or hang streamers with the team's colors. Or transform your Super Bowl party snack table into a mini football field dotted with football-shaped trays and bowls. The Super Bowl is all about having fun, so keep the decorating fun. Be creative and bring the atmosphere of your team’s football stadium into your living room.
