After the Super Bowl: Still Football Fun

The Super Bowl is now in the history books. Number 48 went down as a boring game unless you are a Seattle Seahawks fan, that is. Yes, a great win for the Seahawks, but not a great game for us fans to watch.

So the off-season is now upon us. What are we to do without our weekly dose of football games? The great fun of cheering on our favorite team, or teams in many cases, is over for 7 months. Pre-season doesn't start until August.

Never fear. There are football things to do. The shuffling coach watch is on. The college draft is upcoming. And let us not forget the fun of the replay.

The NFL Network is busy showing reruns of great plays, great games, the best and the worst. Along with the most hilarious, the most dangerous, etc. From the 2013-2014 season there are hundreds of thousands of plays that can be grouped just right and just for some great highlight reels.

At Football Fan Passion, we are already busy planning out the teams to feature, the new gear to show off and football stuff to bring into your home or give as gifts. And there are plenty of great new items to get us started for the 2014-15 season!

Maybe you are ready for a football fan cave! No, we aren't talking a "man" cave. There are plenty of women football fans. So we're talking about a place designed just to cheer on your favorite team with plenty of that team's special goodies. Goodies that are required if your team will be the winner this season. Remember it's only crazy if it doesn't work!

So lament not about the off-season. Super Bowl 48 is over and the celebrations are over. Now, let's have some fun planning for Super Bowl 49! Well, actually the whole season that leads to it anyway.

Time for Super Bowl Party Planning

Yes, it's that time of year again. The regular football season is over and we are scheduling our weekends to plant ourselves in front of the TV to watch all the playoff games. Everything gearing towards that great final game of the year. The Super Bowl. First Sunday in February, this year it's the 3rd.

That means you better get planning for your Super Bowl party. Mine is an annual event. Friends, family and neighbors all gather at my house for the big game. I pick out my great Super Bowl party invitations, get them ordered, then start planning my menu.

My football serving dishes all come out of storage. They make up the majority of my party decorations. Each year, I seem to add a few new ones. Honestly, the only reason I can think that I do that is because I get so excited.

I like to plan an easy menu, one that I can fix ahead of time and not have to do any fussing during the game. I set out a buffet, so everyone can help themselves. That way I can be watching and cheering the big game, too.

Whether this year is your first Super Bowl party or the next one in your annual line-up, get started with those great Super Bowl party invites, then start working on your menu so you know what special football serving dishes you will need.

Super Bowl Party Menu and Serving Ideas

With the Super Bowl coming up on February 3 this year, you need to planning your Super Bowl already. You may have already decided on your guests, gotten your invitations and decorations and are now ready to be thinking about the food you'll serve.

The best part about your menu for a Super Bowl party is that you will have plenty of easy food itemshttp://www.squidoo.com/football-party-food-ideas to serve. Remember to think in terms of finger foods. Those that can eaten just one at a time. What you don't want is to have your guests with a plate full of food when their favorite team scores a touchdown. Imagine the number of plates that will be dumped on your floor as your guests jump up in excitement.

Football food ideas can be as simple as chips and dips along with popcorn, or you can really have some fun trying out new finger sandwiches. Just lay out the food on your coffee table in front of the guests and provide them with plenty of napkins.

Even if your menu is simple, using fun football serving dishes can turn the plain into fun and unique. Think about a referee shirt serving tray with plenty of mini sandwiches piled on it. A cut-in-half-football bowl can hold chips. Football serving dishes will make your menu seem just perfect for your Super Bowl party.
