Having some friends over for a Superbowl party?
Need some interesting Super Bowl party ideas to keep everyone occupied and having a good time?
Regardless of how well-organized your party is (in terms of invitations, team-specific items, decorations, and food & drink), here are a few fun activities that your party guests are sure to enjoy!
For the diehard football fans at your party, do this:
Print out this Super Bowl Party Template and hand out a copy of it to each of your party guests. Everyone must turn in their completed form before the start of the game. Keep tabs on “who’s in the lead” all throughout the game, and award the game winner a special prize at the end.
To that list, you could also add these official Superbowl betting lines.
Alternative Super Bowl Party Ideas:
Stage your own Super Bowl trivia game.
For the non-football fans in the room (who otherwise wouldn’t be interested in watching the game), try this:
Give each person a form on which to list the following:
- How long the game will last
- Which team will score first
- Which team will score last
- Whether there will be a score in the final 2 minutes of game
- Team with last possession in 1st half
- During which half of the game will the most points be scored
- Total points scored separately by each team
- Whether the total points scored by each team will be an even number or an odd number
- What the total points scored by both teams will be in the end
…and any other obscure things you can think of that don’t really relate to how the game is played.
At the end, tally up the votes, and reward all who picked the most popular player in each category with a small gag gift.
Alternative Super Bowl Party Ideas:
Instead of watching the game, perhaps some of the non-football fans will want to gather around the computer to learn about the basics of football and/or play football games online.
Football fans and non-fans alike will enjoy these ideas:
Pay close attention during all the commercials and vote on each one (scale of 1 to 5). At the end of the night, tally up the most popular commercial among your group, and see how this compares to the “best Superbowl commercials” in the news and on the Internet the next day.

It might also be fun to invite everyone to imbibe in the true spirit of the Superbowl by playing this Super Bowl Drinking Game.

I like to help people find unique ways to do things in order to save time & money -- so I write about "outside the box" ideas that most wouldn't think of. As a lifelong dog owner, I often share my best tips for living with and training dogs. I worked in Higher Ed over 10 years before switching gears to pursue activities that I'm truly passionate about. I've worked at a vet, in a photo lab, and at a zoo -- to name a few. I enjoy the outdoors via bicycle, motorcycle, Jeep, or RV.
