Team timeouts, halftime, official timeouts - there will be several moments for you to reflect upon the game at hand. OK, forget reflecting; you must act immediately.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Beer
  • Chips
  • Microwave Popcorn
  • Salsas
  1. Step 1

    Anticipate the commercials. Skip the last few seconds of the commentators' banter and be the first to dash for the bathroom.

  2. Step 2

    Get another beer or your nonalcoholic beverage of choice.

  3. Step 3

    Call distant friends in your pool and gloat if your team is ahead.

  4. Step 4

    Turn off the phone if your team is losing.

  5. Step 5

    Argue with your pals about the direction of the game, who is the most valuable player, whether the refs should all schedule eye exams, and who amongst you could spend 2 minutes on that field without suffering complete humiliation.

  6. Step 6

    Refill the pretzel bowl, replace the dip container, make more popcorn, open another bag of chips, put on a pot of refried beans and melted cheese, and get out the salsa.

  7. Step 7

    Watch every commercial and construct a system for rating the excellence of each advertisement. Award points for relevance, cohesion, most beautiful babe or stud, etc.

  8. Step 8

    Play rock-paper-scissors to decide who goes on a beer - or nonalcoholic beverage - run.

Tips & Warnings
  • The most spectacular touchdowns, tackles and turnovers historically occur during the brief moments when fans exit to the kitchen for more supplies. Stock the living room well, bringing in a temporary refrigerator or shelving unit if necessary, or perhaps hiring a barbecued ribs 'n' chicken joint to cater your affair.

on 11/22/2005 When the commercials are on, or it is half-time break from a favorite or a big game, what I think is a good thing to do is play, Mini-Football! You get a foam ball, and play regular football, except on your knees, simple!!
