Have you ever noticed that most Super Bowl party food ideas are nothing more than stuff made to look like little footballs? Well, we’ll let you in on a little secret… Adding a few well-placed lines to any food, will help it fit in at a Super Bowl party.

So, don’t stress over making your Super Bowl party food as football-centric as possible. Serve whatever you want, just add football stitches. It’s simple… One long line, and then 3-4 perpendicular lines across.

Your Super Bowl party guests will feel festive, and appreciate your effort. Regardless of the actual lack of thought on your part. Enjoy the game.

It’s already oblong and brown. Add stitches, and you’ll have the footballiest of football foods. Never mind that it’s still a meatloaf.

If you need a go-to and inexpensive starch for the day, consider whipping up some rice. Already sort of football-shaped, you’ll need a steady hand, a magnifying glass, and the patience to do a few thousand sets of stitches.

 

WINGSHot wings

Sure, Buffalo wings are already synonymous with football and parties. Now, they can be even Superbowlyer with stitches. No need to cook… If you can pick up a phone and place an order, awesome football food is now just a few straight lines away.

A tray of lasagna is easy to make, and would be a perfect way to feed a few hungry football fans. Although, lasagna isn’t necessarily considered a football party food, a few well-placed stitches will solve all that.

Frozen Burritos

Running out of time to cook, or you’re just plain lazy? Grab a few frozen burritos and pop them in the microwave. There’s a good chance that your guests are already fans of burritos, and some stitching will help them forget that you didn’t really give this party much thought.

There’s usually no place for flaky French pastries at a Super Bowl party. However, if you head down to your grocery store’s bakery section, you could pick up a few croissants. Add some stitches, and your guests will forget that they’re now eating something they’d usually find at an Oscar party.

 

RamenRamen

Everyone will love ramen as a football party meal… Especially if you have some broke co-eds coming over. Just draw some sriracha lines on your instant noodles, and guests will be slurping away in-between giggling at the commercials.

Happy Super Bowl, everybody. And, you’re welcome.

Tackle This Vending Machine, Receive Beer

To cater to the rugby and beer enthusiasts of Northern Argentina, Cerveza Salta and agency Ogilvy & Mather have come up with the Rugbeer machine. The concept behind the interactive vending machine is simple. Patrons attempt a rugby-style takedown on the beer dispenser, and if the machine’s ‘pussy meter’ decides that you’ve applied enough blunt force trauma, you get a beer.

The Rugbeer recently went on tour, and was placed in bars and pubs during rugby matches — even having fake grass placed around it for the full effect. This concept was attempted here in the states — but bar patrons wouldn’t take on the vending machine without a helmet and shoulder pads.*
