You dont have to be a true football fan to make the most of a Super Bowl party.

Gamify your game day, if you will.

(Also: Since this year Super Bowl LVI is on Feb. 13, youre essentially pre-gaming Valentines Day.

Just a thought.)

you might take any of the gameplay below and assign penalties that arent drinking alcohol.

For instance, my friend is in a fantasy league that has increasingly horrible stakes each year.

This year, the loser has to retake the SAT.

Now, let the games begin.

A player points victoriously at the sky.

Someone yells at the ref (on screen or off).

The camera pans to a players baby.

Everyone at your party goes aw at the players baby.

An animal speaks in a commercial.

A baby speaks in a commercial.

An animal and a baby have a conversation in a commercial.

Someone at your party says sports ball, orany item from this list.

A commentator mentions Tom Brady.

Hes not playing, but Ill be damned if they dont bring him up anyway.

Commercial bingo

Print out blank bingo cards and write in Super Bowl ad-themed squares.

overly patriotic cars, overly erotic perfumes, and overly unhingedMountain Dew fever dreams.

As always, the first person to get BINGO wins.

Halftime show show-down

Take a break from the game on screen with a physical party game.

Some ideas for party games:

Flip cup.

Just like college, right?

Divide your players into Rams and Bengals to verify the stakes stay high.

This one comes fromA Subtle Revelry.

At the end of each quarter, the winner (aka drinker!)

is selected by using the last number of each teams score to see where they intersect.

Again, none of these party games have to involve drinking.

But they definitely can if you want them to.

Who will have the most outrageous outbursts?

Who will bring up how much they miss Jennifer Lopez and Shakiras iconic 2020 halftime show?
