Go sports! Do the thing! Make the points! Are you ready to watch that football team that wins a lot play that other team from somewhere else on Sunday? Or is it Saturday? If football isn\u2019t your jam, we feel you. Plenty of people tune in to the Super Bowl (on <\/span>Sunday<\/span><\/i>) for the big-budget commercials alone.<\/span><\/p>\n

When you host a Super Bowl party, you inevitably have a mixed crowd. Some partygoers will be avid football fans, others might support a team that didn\u2019t make it, and some people will want to eat bean dip but don\u2019t care about the main event. If you think your guests will be mostly the latter, keep it casual. Throw on your favorite pair of <\/span>pajama pants<\/span><\/a> and encourage your guests to do the same. Get comfortable and settle in for a relaxed day of games — it\u2019ll give you something to do until until the next commercial!<\/span><\/p>\n

5 Games to Play in Your PJs During the Super Bowl<\/span><\/h2>\n

1. Super Bowl Trivia<\/span><\/h3>\n

A game day classic, use these <\/span>printable Super Bowl trivia sheets<\/span><\/a> and have everyone put their Super Bowl knowledge to the test. The game is multiple choice, so even the football novice can play — and has a chance to win!<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Super Bowl Cook Off<\/span><\/h3>\n

Tell your guests to bring a dish to the party and declare a \u201ccook off.\u201d Leave index cards, pens, and an empty container — like a vase or bowl — next to the food display. Have your guests vote for their favorite dish and drop their selection in the bowl. At the end of the night, count the votes and the winner gets a prize.<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Commercial Bingo<\/span><\/h3>\n

Since many guests will be watching for the commercials as much as the game, try this super fun <\/span>printable Commercial Bingo cards<\/span><\/a>. The cards include popular words, brands, and celebrities that appear annually such as Lexus, Cindy Crawford, and TurboTax. Your guests will think it\u2019s a riot!<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Super Bowl Prop Pool<\/span><\/h3>\n

Another game day favorite, <\/span>print out the these questionnaires<\/span><\/a> for a Super Bowl prop pool. The sheet features questions of various levels and point values and many questions are over\/under or yes\/no so the football newbs can participate too!<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Don\u2019t Say It or \u201cNot It\u201d<\/span><\/h3>\n

For a simple game of \u2018Don\u2019t Say It,\u2019 you pick a word — like <\/span>football<\/span><\/i>, <\/span>wings<\/span><\/i>, or <\/span>wow<\/span><\/i> — and whoever says the word gets a point on a tally sheet (you can make it fun by hanging a large post board on the wall with everyone\u2019s name). Whoever has the fewest points at the end wins a prize! <\/span><\/p>\n

Another variation is \u2018Not It.\u2019 This game involves actually paying attention to the game day announcers, so it\u2019s a fun way to get people who aren\u2019t interested in football into the game. Whenever an announcer says a player or team brought their \u201cA-game,\u201d or refers to a running back as a \u201cworkhorse,\u201d or calls a player a \u201creal athlete\u201d — put your finger on your nose. The last person to do so gets a point. Whoever has no — or the fewest points — wins a prize.<\/span><\/p>\n
