Super Bowl XLVI Drinking Game

Super Bowl XLVI Drinking Game

So today is the Super Bowl. A day that could be considered an American holiday. We gather with friends and family with endless amounts of wings, chili, nachos, and all kinds of other wonderful junk food that will bloat your stomach out for the next 3 days. (On a side note, here's a great tip to make your Super Bowl Sunday experience even better: Wear elastic wasted pants.)

It's become way more than a game. It is a week long events with parties, celebrity sightings, mini concerts, and yes, even a red carpet. So why not include a drinking game? Play at your own risk and beware the Peyton Manning rule alone is guaranteed to make you pass out before halftime. If keeping up with all the different rules, pick a few and just do those. Special thanks to my husband and brother-in-law for their inputs.


Rule #1: The first time Peyton Manning is mentioned you take one drink. The next time he is mentioned take 2 drinks, the third time he is mentioned take 3 drinks, and so on.

Rule #2: Anytime Tim Tebow is mentioned everyone has to take 2 drinks and begin "Tebowing" in the middle of the room facing the TV. If they show a Tim Tebow highlight everyone must finish their drink then start "Tebowing"

Rule #3: Everyone drinks 1 drink anytime Al Michaels says "Airing one out", such "2nd and 10 and Brady's gonna air this one out to Welker!"

Rule #4: Any time they show Patriots owner Robert Kraft in his suite watching the game take 1 drink. If his sports coat is still on take 2 drinks

Rule #5: Finish your drink if Ochocinco catches a pass

Rule #6: If Tom Brady whines to the officials while walking with them with his arms out, palms up in complete disbelief take 2 drinks

Rule #7: Whenever they show Tom Coughlin with that constipated look on his face take one drink

Rule #8. Drink 1 drink and salsa dance anytime Victor Cruz scores a touchdown

Rule #9: During any type of dot.com commercial everyone must take 2 drinks

Rule #10. When Al Michaels refers to the sideline reporter everyone readies their drink. If the camera stays on the game, everyone drinks until the sideline reporter shuts up. If the camera shows the reporter, everyone drinks until they show the field.

Rule #11: During a beer commercial everyone is to stop what they are doing and watch in silence until it is over...and then take 1 drink

Rule #12: Finish your drink when they show the highlight of David Tyree's amazing catch in Super Bowl XLII

Play responsible and make sure you find someone not playing to drive you home. Especially if the announcers spend a whole quarter debating the chances of Peyton Manning being a Colt next year.

Enjoy and Happy Super Bowl Sunday!!
