For one Sunday night, football fans around the world tune in for the game of the year. While the Super Bowl takes place between the top two NFL teams, a great party lets guests get in some playing action as well.
Start with the must-have betting grid, and then get creative with other fun activities. These ideas for Super Bowl party games will keep everyone's spirits up, whether or not their team wins.
More Ways to Have Fun with Football:
When you invite friends to the party, challenge them to come up with creative outfits supporting one of this year's Super Bowl teams. Some ideas include: using wacky wigs, body painting and mascot costumes. After everyone votes for their favorite, give the winner a prize, such as a team jersey or gift card to a sports bar.
A Super Bowl party isn't complete without a game of football. If there is no time for an actual game of pick-up, just head outside during halftime for a throwing contest. Have everyone stand in a specific place and see who can throw a football the farthest.
Play off the football theme and mark each person's landing spot with a yard stake and yellow flag.

Steps
- Gather letter tiles from several Scrabble board games.
