Can’t Talk. Eating. Go Football.

Reusable Heavy Duty Plastic Tablecloth (72"x52") with a Football Field Design

There may be a game on the field, but we’re all winners with a spread full of snacks on the table. Especially when there’s a big gaping hole right at the 50-yard line—just waiting for the platter of burgers. And more dip… And nachos… And stuffed mushrooms. And little quiches… And…

Score with Chillzanne

Pampered Chef Chillzanne Rectangle Server

With the Super Bowl right on the horizon it’s time to consider the most important aspect of the game: the menu. Chips and dips have a natural affinity for televised sporting events, and during the Big Game, ‘Super Bowl’ has more than one meaning. No matter what snack you reach for on Super Sunday, you’re going to need something to put it in.

Somebody actually bothered to invent the Wild Fling Popcorn Basketball Bowl

Wild Fling Popcorn Basketball Bowl

The Wild Fling Popcorn Basketball Bowl may just be the most ridiculous sports-watching accessory since the beer helmet. Not surprisingly, the two hunks of plastic complement each other; drink with one, eat snacks with the other.

Dust off your old beer helmet (because every closet has one, right?) and get up to date with this snack bowl. When the beer helmet runs dry, enjoy the convenience offered by the integrated beverage holder. You’ll find it right next to the remote control. If your beer helmet is in the shop, no worries, because when the popcorn is all gone and the game is over, the bowl doubles (triples?) as a stylish helmet. Remember, it’s not whether you win or lose, it’s how you watch the game.

Three-point shot goes wide for this basketball gadget

Magic 3 in 1 Basketball Peeler Bottle Opener Storing Case

With the NBA Playoffs dribbling towards their inevitable conclusion (Cleveland in 5 over L.A.), it seems appropriate to highlight a basketball-themed kitchen gadget. With so many kitchen gadgets on the market it seems a bit difficult to choose only one. In that regard, here is the Magic 3 in 1 Basketball Peeler Bottle Opener Storing Case.

The three-point play combines a peeler, a bottle opener and a storing case. While the storing case is a bit of a stretch (foot on the line), the other two features are certainly useful. Granted, they all come in a weird basketball contraption, but somebody’s got to want one of these, right? Currently priced at $4.99 down from $16.99.
