gameplan

If you’ve ever needed an excuse to throw a party in the beginning of February (no, Groundhog Day doesn’t count), it’s when football season comes to an end, culminating in the big game. Here are a few tips to make sure your entertaining gameplan is flawlessly executed and, no matter who wins on the field, you emerge victorious.

Nice Seats

Reclining Sofa

Nothing beats taking in a game from the 50 yard line at the stadium—but kicking back on a plush sofa in the friendly confines of a living room is a close second. Add built-in cupholders to the equation and your guests will be wishing for triple overtime.

Standing Room Only

Pouf Group

Odds are, not everyone will find a seat. And either they won’t mind, or they won’t stand for it. That’s where poufs come into play. Toss a few in the middle of the action and no one will have to watch the game from the sidelines.

Gametime = Snacktime

You want your party to be special—and that starts with the food. So we recommend planning your menu a few days in advance versus calling an audible a few hours before the coin toss. Quick picks like pigs-in-blankets and chips-n-guac are proven crowd pleasers. And if you want to go bigger, dish out some tasty homemade chili. Click here. Best of luck with your big game party.
