Just as with any party prep, you'll want to get as much as you can done ahead of time. This allows you to focus on keeping hot food hot the day of the party and not on any last-minute stirring of onions into sour cream. Ideally, everything that needs to be hot should be cooked well before game time, then reheated just before you need it.

But no matter my current level of interest in the league itself, one thing I can always get behind is a game-day watch party. I'll take any excuse to gather friends, eat snacks, drink beer, and be merry, especially when I can do it all from the comfort of my own living room. What better way to spend one of the coldest months of the year?

At leading prediction market Kalshi, more than $47 million has been staked this season on what are known as NFL announcer mention markets, where users trade on the probability of what the play-by-play broadcaster or color analyst will -- or will not -- say during games. Since September, the average amount risked on NFL announcer mention markets has grown more than seven times, from less than half a million per game at the start of the season to $3.55 million on the AFC and NFC championship games

If the thought of sharing room temperature guacamole dip with a bunch of friends of friends on Super Bowl Sunday isn't exactly exactly your idea of pigskin paradise then, well, you're going to want to keep reading. Sure, it seems like everybody on the planet is focused in the NFL's big game, which returns to Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara on Sunday after a 10-year absence.

Downtown San Jose was more alive today than at any point I can remember. Every street was packed, music was everywhere from the stages to the lowriders cruising the streets, and street food was abundant all throughout the area. San Pedro Square was booming, but so was SoFA, and all of Santa Clara Street. The free drone show at Discovery Meadows was also excellent. If you have the opportunity to get to Downtown tomorrow, take it.

You won't find this in Cortina d'Ampezzo over the next few weeks, but for several decades of the Olympics' history, the contest awarded medals not just for sport but for art too. In the Summer Games from 1912 to 1948, musicians, painters, and plenty of other aesthetes went brain-to-brain in events such as lyric poetry and chamber music. "Town planning" was even contested one year under the umbrella of the architecture competition.

Kelce is a known beer lover, and apparently he's also a fan of Sazeracs. Jason Kelce, soon-to-be brother-in-law to Taylor Swift, visited Comstock Saloon on Saturday, according to an Instagram post and confirmed by co-owner Jonny Raglin. Kelce arrived during happy hour with a small camera crew. They were there to film a short segment with Joseph Amster, who parades around the city as Emperor Norton, an eccentric historical figure of San Francisco from the 1800s.

Tempura shrimp may seem like an odd item to get at Aldi, but it's surprisingly tasty. In fact, after trying 14 seafood products from the retailer, we ranked the Fremont Fish Market find as the top option.

According to Amanda Augustine, resident career expert for TopResume and a Certified Professional Career Coach, per a press release, employers should adjust to the anticipated lower attendance. "For many Americans, the Monday after the Super Bowl comes with a real post-game hangover, and I don't just mean from the snacks and cocktails. It's a mix of late nights, disrupted routines, and for some, a case of the post-game blues.

The first thing to know about queso fundido is that it's not " queso," the creamy dip, often based on Velveeta, eaten with chips. Queso fundido, which translates to "melted cheese," is just that: It's melted cheese to which you can add sautéed mushrooms, poblano peppers or chorizo. It must be eaten the moment it's done, when the cheese is warm and stretchy.

Instead, with the Seahawks trailing 28-24 and 26 seconds to play, offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell with the authorization of coach Pete Carroll called for a quick slant pass from quarterback Russell Wilson to wide receiver Ricardo Lockette. New England safety Malcolm Butler got there first with an interception at the 1. The Patriots (15-4) won their fourth of six Lombardi Trophies under coach Bill Belichick and quarterback Tom Brady.

Cheering on your favorite team can cause severe mood swings, violent outbursts, and even, at times, tightness in your chest. It's why I'm a fair-weather fan. There's a backstory: I used to have a team. As a Baltimore native, when the Ravens came to our city in 1996, I was all in. After buying tons of black and purple, winning two Super Bowls, and then white knuckling through the lackluster seasons that followed, I decided to set a boundary for my own sanity.

The 61-year-old is in search of something bigger than himself, in both a spiritual and physical sense. Wedged between open bars and long tables of catered food, professional football players young and old mingle with assorted VIPs. We're at the Adobe-sponsored NFL House, a party that on a normal day we would never sniff. But it is not a normal day; it is the day before the Super Bowl. For this weekend, we are not normal people. We are VIPs.

He was selected by the Patriots in the fourth round of the 2019 draft and started a grand total of zero games for them. There were some mitigating factors such as backing up Tom Brady in his first season in the NFL. But when Cam Newton came to town in 2020, he was the backup Brian Hoyer's backup so New England clearly didn't think too highly of him.
