With the Super Bowl right around the corner, we’re here to help guide you to having the best party this Sunday! Keep reading to hear what food to provide, decorations to buy, and outfits to wear.
Food:
Food may be the toughest part of throwing a good Super Bowl party. The key is appetizers. People don’t want to be sitting down for a full course meal while the game is on so it’s important to have a variety of plates that guests can snack on. No matter what team you root for, the food can make or break your Super Bowl viewing experience.
Here are some staples:
- Chicken Wings
- Dips
- Pizza
- Veggie Platter
- Jalapeno Poppers
Dips are always a hit so just buy or make them all like spinach artichoke, guacamole, buffalo chicken, and french onion. That being said, don’t forget to provide a variety of chips to match the dip assortment. These are just a few of the food plates you can provide to make your party one of the bests!
For Bengals:
If you’re rooting for The Bengals, you can always incorporate some Cincinnati favorites into your spread. Skyline Chili is a staple for the area so make your chili cheese dip with their signature chili. Gold Star is the signature chili of the Bengals so you could also choose this for your dip or incorporate it in some chili cheese dogs. For a dessert, item either make or buy some buckeye candy as it is the Ohio state tree and a local favorite candy!
For Rams:
LA can be hard to find specified food for since so many varieties of cuisine exist within the city, but we have you covered. The french dip sandwich originated in LA so why not incorporate these into a slider version for your guests to enjoy? You could also cut up some waffles and put a chicken tender on top with some syrup drizzle to pay homage to the Roscoe’s Chicken and Waffle franchise. Of course, everyone thinks Mexican food and avocados when they think of California so why not have some taquitos and guacamole dip as well. For dessert, LA is known for having a doughnut shop on every corner so puck up a few dozen to finish off your spread.
Decorations:
Decorations should be simple but festive. These are the most important decorations to purchase:
- Balloons (in your team colors)
- Plates, Bowls, and Cups
- Utensils
- Table Covers
- Banners
The most important part about decorations is the theme! Make sure that all your decorations are in your team colors. Bengals fans should be surrounded by orange and black while Rams fans will be buried in blue and gold. If you aren’t rooting for either team, try to organize your decorations around a basic football theme. You can also buy some specific logo decorations off Amazon for both teams. If you want to have some decorations that have multi-purposes you can have a selfie corner with fun items like masks, feather boas, hats, and anything else you can think of in your team’s colors; you can even get some ram or tiger ears and masks for your guests to wear.
Attire:
Similar to decorations, you want to make sure that your Super Bowl outfit supports whichever team you are rooting for. If your teams aren’t in the Super Bowl this year, wear their gear anyway and manifest that they get to the big game next year. If you really want to go all out get some face paint and show off your team pride from head to toe!
Hopefully, these tips can help make your Super Bowl party epic this weekend!
