Super Bowl XLVII might be taking place in New Orleans, but you can make your party almost as good by following these simple instructions.
As the Baltimore Ravens and San Francisco 49ers take the field, this is what you're going to want to do to prepare for your legendary party.
The Super Bowl only happens once a year, so don't cheap out. You're trying to have the best party ever, so naturally you're going to need some amazing food.
If take out food won't cut it, try giving your guests game day favorites like wings, sliders, potato skins and more.
Stock up with a regular keg or a mini-keg. It's a great way to make sure you don't run out, and who doesn't like using a keg?
If you trust everyone you're hosting then you could give whistles too, but odds are that they would blow them way too often and disrupt the game.
Hate to watch the halftime show? Not if you bet on how many times Beyonce will screw up. Hate to watch the postgame ceremony? Not if you bet on who the MVP and coach thank first.
My personal favorite is the color of the Gatorade bath after the game, but you can make small bets on literally anything.
Make sure you watch the game at the house with the best TV. Everything else is optional, but if you throw an awesome party and no one can see the game then you look like an idiot.
Let's be real. Everyone likes the Super Bowl commercials. They're the best of the best, and there's no point in saying that you could care less about them.
One of the ways to keep everyone watching the commercials—and give them a reason to watch without having to admit they like them—is to have everyone rate the commercials.
You can rate them, try guessing which company is next, use different companies as spaces on a Bingo board, etc. Just make sure you give the commercials some attention too.
Kids don't want to sit around watching football for four hours, and when they get bored they're going to let you know.
You do not want to have six or seven young kids talking during the entire game, or asking you who Colin Kaepernick is.
Before the game you have everyone write down their names is squares in a 10 x 10 box. Then you draw numbers 0-9 at random, and the square that lines up with the last digit of both teams' scores at the end of each quarter wins money.
Whether you drink every time someone says "Harbaugh" or whenever the announcers say something obvious, just find a way to play.
No girlfriends who think football is "cute." No friends who only want to see the commercials. No one who will talk during the game.
The worst part of Super Bowl parties is the group of people who don't like football, and everyone else will thank you for doing this.
