The time of year is January, and the NFL playoffs are upon us. On Saturday, January 15th, the NFL playoffs begin with Wildcard matchups that end on Monday, January 17th, and before you know it, Super Bowl LVI will be here. 

This year, the Super Bowl takes place in Los Angeles, CA, at SoFi Stadium on Sunday, February 13th. There’s still plenty of time to plan for the big game while we wait to see how the NFL playoffs will shake out. Below, we highlight a few of the best things you can do to make the most of Super Bowl LVI. 

Attend a Super Bowl Party…Safely

The past two years haven’t been easy as the surging coronavirus just doesn’t seem like it will go away. The good news is most of the nation has learned to navigate these uncertain times, and experts have helped define health and safety measures that can help folks host safe gatherings, big or small. 

There’s arguably no better way to watch the largest sporting event of the year than with your friends and family at a Super Bowl party. This year might feel extra special for some if they weren’t able to attend a party last year due to the pandemic. 

Super Bowl parties are a great way to socialize, even if you’re not a big fan of the NFL. It brings folks together, and who knows, you may even witness Super Bowl history as well. 

Enjoy Your Favorite Recipes of Beverages 

Of course, a crucial part of any Super Bowl Party is the food and beverage spread. Make the most out of this year’s Super Bowl by enjoying some of your favorite foods and Super Bowl Party classics such as chicken wings, buffalo chicken dip, queso dip, and more.
