Planning notes for a Super Bowl party

  • Beer moves fastest early and again at the finish, so keep the coolers stocked from the first quarter on.
  • Keep spare beer cold and ready. A game that runs to overtime can go through far more than expected.
  • Use halftime to restock ALL coolers - you have exactly 25 minutes.

This is a beer event, period. Stock 70% light/domestic beers and 30% craft/premium options. Have coolers pre-staged in multiple locations so guests can grab drinks without blocking the TV. Buy ice in bulk. It is the one supply worth over-buying, since a room full of coolers goes through more than seems reasonable.
