Not a Football Fan? Have an Un Super Bowl Party!

Okay, so not everybody gets into football. No problem. There is no reason you can't still have just as much fun on Super Bowl Sunday while others do their thing. Just throw a simultaneous Un Super Bowl Party!

Let the football fans have one room and one TV to enjoy the kicking, passing, rushing, tackling, sacking, and interceptions, while you enjoy your own good time in another room. Maybe some of your friends would like to drop off their kids or husbands (or wives, who knows?) in your family room to watch the big game, and join you for an Un Super Bowl Party in another space.

You might rent some great movies, break out some board games, or play cards. Anything fun that does not have a thing to do with football will work. You and your party guests can still enjoy the great food and spirited atmosphere without actually having to sit through a game that does not interest you. Of course, you can also peek into the other room if you want to check the score without watching the whole game or peek in to check out all the cool commercials unveiled during the Super Bowl.

This is a great compromise for dual households (those made up of football fans and those who could pass -no pun intended- on football). Do your own thing while others in your family enjoy the game. Of course, you should locate your Un Super Bowl Party some distance from the room in which the Super Bowl Party is occurring, because football fans do tend to be, well... a little loud. This year will be no exception as it promises to be a very exciting game.

Also, be sure to sneak a few photos or better yet, some video of your favorite football fans while they are all caught up in the game. It will make great viewing at next year's Un Super Bowl Party!
