With this simple list of dos and don’ts, you’ll be a pro Super-Bowl-watcher in no time...or least your guy friends won’t kick you out of the room. Fake it 'til you make it, right?
1.
DO get there on time! Kick off waits for no one.
2.
DON’T stand in front of the TV. This may seem like an obvious one, but we’re
talking as little as no blockage of the TV for more than a few seconds. Not
even if you bend down reaching for your purse that you placed next to the TV.
It’s one of those days where the TV is better than your behind.
3.
DO allow swearing. It’s an emotional day for many people, let them let it out.
4.
DON’T ask if you’re prettier than the football star's wife. We’re all
beautiful, but we’re not all Gisele.
5.
DO search the internet before you ask questions that could potentially be basic
football knowledge.
6.
DON’T ask if a Russian touchdown is different from an American touch down. It’s
pronounced RUSHING. **Known from experience**
7.
DO bring beer. Bring lots of beer. This isn’t just for the avid game watchers,
this is also for the confused game watchers. Every time you don’t understand
what’s going on, drink. Now you’ve just created the easiest drinking game ever.
8.
DON’T get too excited when there are only 2 minutes left on the clock. That
actually means there is about a half hour left.
9.
DO know which team to root for. Cheering when the wrong team scores could land
you some pretty dirty glares.
10.
DON’T say, “maybe next year” if your team loses. Optimism doesn’t help at a
moment like this.
With
this basic how-to list you’re officially ready to watch the Super Bowl with
even the most fanatical football fan. And just remember; next time your guy is
yelling at you because you said you’d be ready five minutes ago, just tell him
you meant football minutes.
Just
the Minor Details.
