If you are having a party to watch the big game, make sure you have all the essentials and game-day-ready needs!Â
Shopping for a TV
There is no better time to update your entertainment system than the football season. Purchasing a television can be a large investment however some deals are a big win—you just can’t pass them up.
Popular brands such as LG, Sony, Samsung, and TCL TVs, are in stock and ready to ship to your home and are available at any of our store locations.
A 65-inch 4K TV has become the household norm and models can be found for around $500. If you are looking for a bigger screen, pricing will be higher but still affordable starting at around $700. OLED Smart and QLED Smart have been a recent hot TV option and can cost almost as low as a regular 4K smart TV!
A standard for resolution is a 4K TV, which is made up of 3,840 x 2,160 pixels (8 million pixels in total). While OLED and QLED TVs are either 4k or 8k, they are designed to help give light and color to the pixels of the screen, making blues bluer, and greens greener.
All of these TVs are game day ready, and your football fan guests will love watching the game, the comical commercials, and that show-stopping half-time performance.Â
Sounds Like a Victory
The sound of the football game is just as important as the screen you are watching it on. Over time as TVs were designed to be thinner, there was less space to fit speakers in. Get better audio quality from your TV with a soundbar. Soundbars are easy to install, take up little space, and will provide big improvements for a small price.Â
Easy & Fun Recipes
If people aren’t there for the game, they are there for the snacks! Score big with everyone coming to the party by making game-day snacks that everyone can enjoy. Stick with the basics for dips, salsa, guacamole, queso, and if you are feeling adventurous go for the layer dip! Get creative, instead of nachos, substitute the corn chips for tater tots! Crockpots will be the hot topic of a party, you can make dips, pulled pork/chicken, chilis, and even chicken wings! The MVP will be your air fryer, helping you make everything from french fries, onion rings, chips, egg rolls, jalapeno poppers, and more without all the access oil.
For vegetarian and vegan guests consider alternative meat and dairy substitutes. Instead of buffalo wings, try making buffalo cauliflower! Hummus and vegetables make great and healthy snacks to munch on! If looking to make sliders, instead of using ground beef, try making veggie or tofu sliders.
Kid Zone
Not everyone is a fan of the game, especially little ones. If you have kids as guests coming to the party, create a special space for them where they can have their own party. Have them have access to a streaming media platform, so they can watch their favorite movies and shows, put out games and puzzles to help them stay busy and entertained, and even put out a cooler of kid-friendly drinks.
