You don't have to worry about Super Bowl snacks when Ree Drummond has you covered with recipes for pizza rolls and sandwich rolls. Haven't tried her buffalo chicken dip recipe? Sorry, but you haven't lived. (The same goes for all her Super Bowl dips!) See, for some, Super Bowl Sunday is about the food. For many others, it's all about the game. But no matter which team you're rooting for, half the fun of the big day is gathering with friends for the football party.
Here, we're sharing Super Bowl party games so you can supplement the on-screen action with off-screen fun. No need to host a huge Super Bowl party just to try out these fun ideas: Even with just a few friends or your kids, you'll be able to upgrade your viewing experience by tossing a football into an inflatable hoop, acing a round of "Super Bowl Commercial Bingo," or celebrating halftime with a football-inspired version of bean bag toss. Some of your favorite tailgate games, including cornhole and ring toss, make an appearance here, too. The best part? Most of these options double as football decorations—and not all of them require you to DIY anything, either. Hey, there's nothing wrong with store-bought! So what are you waiting for? Tell your crew to bring their competitive spirit, because there's going to be double the action this year.
