That said; I decided to change things up this year. We will go to neighbors house for pre game only. Then home by ourselves (immediate family only) to watch the game or the commercials, whatever your preference is. A good meal as opposed to grazing through the party snacks.(Bruschettas and baked crab stuffed cod) I know that I miss too much when I have been at Super Bowl parties and am making it a family only during the game.

So what are your plans?
I do not agree about the Saturday thing. Hasta be Superbowl SUNDAY. A five o'clock start would serve many early-rising Monday folks well.

Absolutely agree about watching the game in a smaller setting. I have been to Superbowl "parties" where it is a struggle to hear or follow the game due to the card games, kids running around and general disinterest in the game itself, regardless of who is playing.

It will be just a few family members joining my wife and I and they all know how loud the TV will be throughout the game. Will likely do a nice dinner pre-game too, homemade sauce, meatballs and bista. Will have all the snackage too, chips/dips, bacon-wrapped shrimp, taco-salad etc...

Will also DVR the game to go through it again afterward alone...



Go PATS!
