Tailgaiting at home!

Schools been in session for a while and college football is heating up. Here is some tips and tricks to have your home be the place to be on game nights. Besides food the most important thing is to show your teams pride in your decorations. You always want to make sure people know which team you are supporting and if your party members are divided you can always split up themes or don’t and let them know which team is best. Here are some easy ideas for banners, themes and setting up.



Giving your party the team spirit feel can be as easy and inexpensive as having everything only in your team colors. Such as cups, napkins, table cloth, Kool-Aid, balloons, pillows. Other simple ways is turning all your foods into football teamed foods. It’s as easy as decorating cupcakes to look like footballs, or chocolate covered apple slices with white chocolate football lines on it, or deviled eggs made to look like a football. Of course you have to remember to have the traditional football snacks like wings, cheese and crackers, mini hot dogs, chips and dip, basically anything that’s finger food.


Another fun part about having a game day party is the games, because let’s face it, most of the kids that come along and some of the women aren’t really into football. And you need something to do before the game as well. Two of my favorite games that I like to play at game day parties is the bean bag toss, and a game that no one ever really has the same name for it because it has a million different names but it sometimes known as bolo toss. My family just called it the game that dad made with the golf balls string and PVC pipes. And it’s as simple as those three materials to make one, and it’s a great game for parties. It’s also really easy to make a bean bag toss game as well, and to make it even more fun you can make it football themed. Most of the ones I see are because that mainly that type of parties that you play it at, and it then resembles a ball being thrown across a football field. Don’t forget the original and best game at football games which is plain old catch with a football. After using these tips no one will be able to top your game day party!
