Now that the formal holidays are behind us, we can move on to the best one of them all: Super Bowl Sunday. It’s the unofficial national holiday during which (almost) every red-blooded American indulges in as many football-themed things as possible (think football-shaped Super Bowl snacks and Super Bowl decorations) in front of TV screens across the country. And the one thing that’s just as about ubiquitous as the Super Bowl itself is the iconic game day party. Whether you’re hosting or attending, check out these 10 essentials for the ultimate Super Bowl party experience.
