5 Super Bowl Party Ideas

The Vikings didn’t make the Super Bowl this year. You can still have an awesome Super Bowl Sunday. Instead of apathetically watching the Colts steamroll the Saints, take my suggestions to increase the “fun factor” at your Super Bowl party.
Pre Game
You could listen to dancing-sensation, Katie Couric, interview President Obama before the Super Bowl. Or, you could ignore politicians who are trying to control college football, act as sports commentators and snag prime pre-Super Bowl slots instead of focusing on their real job. (We all know Underwear Bombers could care less about football.)
If you’d like the President to start focussing on serious matters like national security and spend less time having fun, here’s a better pre-game idea: Have your guests make the President a paint splash Valentine. Just be sure to finish reading this post BEFORE you start splashing paint, or you’ll end up like my “twin” sister, Blair:
Before the game, give each guest a different colored can of paint and a huge blank canvas. Let them have fun – this is modern art – not Michelangelo. They should write a message to the President such as: “Leave Football Alone!” They can finger paint, spray paint, dump the entire can of paint on the canvas – whatever rocks their boat. Let the canvas dry, and on Monday ship the canvas to the White House for Valentine’s Day delivery.
Food
The Vikings are a good team. Let’s stop moping and celebrate how far they came this season with:
- Energizing Sack-Man Smoothies to honor Jared Allen’s energy that, as Sports Illustrated reveals, carries fans on eagle’s wings. Or, as Brett Favre says, “Jared Allen is a beast, man.” Smoothies taste best Allen-style, when when you’re wearing your Wyatt Earp cowboy hat.
- Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese and wine to honor the strength, leadership and skill that Brett Favre brought to the Vikings this season. Wine and Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese get better with age, as does Favre. Whether Favre stays with the Vikings or not, I’ve shown how his leadership has improved the team, and we should celebrate that.
Party Favors
Send your guests home looking like Joe Montana and give them all Super Bowl rings. Get the Vince Lombardi Trophy engraved onto an inexpensive ring for each guest. Now that Roger Goodell seems to think it’s fine to mess with the Holy Grail of NFL tradition and alter the look of the Trophy on the Super Bowl logo, you need to preserve it for your friends. Some changes, like going from Sen. Kennedy to Sen. Brown are uplifting, while pointless change for the sake of change is less exciting. 
After Party
TiVo Tebow: Record Tim Tebow’s confident tribute to life and free speech in his Super Bowl ad. Whenever you’re tired of hearing about Tiger Woods’ secret life, turn on Tebow’s ad and restore your faith in super star athletes.

you are wrong about obama trying to control sports. Hatch from Utah has been spear heading college football playoffs. Who last time I checked is a R.
Sweet article!
@bbplayer5: I think there’s a logical reason Obama keeps showing up in Katie’s posts related to politicians who want to control sports: He’s the one leading the charge to control sports. He’s also the one who took 3 days to respond to the Underwear Bomber’s attack, but seems to always find time to vacation in Hawaii, appear on late-night comedy shows or narrate basketball games.
Let’s get over the Bush hatred and talk about what is going on today: Obama is leading Congress in the direction of controlling sports. Politics and sports should not be mixed. It’s funny how you admit that Katie is “smart,” and your only argument against what she has to say to accuse her of what she MIGHT have said if Bush had done the same thing Obama did. This is pretty judgmental on your part. Particularly because while Bush played sports, he never tried to control sports like President Obama is. Additionally, Bush is not the president today, and Obama is. So, let’s focus on what Obama is doing and saying because he’s the president making poor decisions today, not Bush.
Dear Katie,
I stumbled across your blog and i am just in shock with some of things you write. First off, you seem to have a blame obama for everything. You criticize for the dumbest things, like going to a basketball game a sport that he really loves. When he was with the announcers he was having a good time and joking around with them. If it was Bush or some conservative i bet you would of loved it. You have a problem of looking at everything from red glasses. You don’t present any new arguments. Its the same old crap that got us into the mess. You are smart but very narrow minded which in the end will kill your party
