Super Bowl XLVI Party Ideas

Now that our favorite team, the New England Patriots, will be playing in this year's Super Bowl we could not be more excited to plan a party for it.  Here are some ideas that we think will make your event as amazing as possible, even if your team doesn't take home the top prize.

Don't go crazy with beverage options.  As we all know drinking beer while watching football is one of the oldest traditions and oftentimes it is best not to change an old tradition.  We do have a few suggestions on how to elaborate on this.  Having a wide selection of different brews is definitely a good idea, people love to have many options and try all different kinda throughout the game.  Also, Tarritos are a fun and innovative way for you to enjoy your favorite game day beverage.  A Tarrito is a beer lollipop, not only a delicious alternative to drinking beer out of a bottle or stein, it is also a fabulous novelty that all your guests are sure to enjoy.  Lastly, do not forget football shaped ice cubes for all your guests who prefer a different drink besides beer.

Food is another Super Bowl Party aspect that can be kept at the basic expectations.  Wings, pizza and burgers are football game staples that we suggest you serve at your party.  We personally LOVE the idea of a Brady Burger.  Serve sliders with pepper jack cheese, chipotle mayo and garnished with Tom Brady's favorite food, onion rings.  For other food choices line trays and plates with astroturf to resemble a stadium field.  As for dessert, you can make delicious beer inspired cupcakes that will be sure to please.  We love the Blue Moon cupcake recipe found here or the Beer Run cupcake recipe found here.

Decor for your Super Bowl Party is a facet that you can have some major fun with.  Of course there is the color scheme which is very important as it shows which team you are rooting for.  In this case the decision is easy, as both the Giants and the Patriots don red, white and blue uniforms.  Consider making VIP All Access lanyards that resemble that given at an actual game, this is such a  fun idea and a great party favor!  You can also try to create a a fabulous entrance for all your guests that looks and feels just like a field tunnel that all the players go through.  Finally you could create a Wii Super Bowl Arena with Madden Football playing during the game breaks.

We hope you all have a fabulous, fun and safe Super Bowl.  GO PATS!
