Super Bowl 48 vs. Puppy Bowl 10

I’ll be honest here, I am not a huge Super Bowl fan. Last year, when the power went out during Beyonce’s performance (yeah Bey!) I took that as a sign and opportunity to leave the party I was at and head on home. But if feels wrong not to write something about the Super Bowl. So I confided in our office football enthusiast, Matty, to point me in the right direction of all of the essentials for game day.

Here’s his list of must-haves:

Chicken wings

If you plan on watching the big game without some finger-licking chicken wings, then you are “wicked weird!” Therefore, my recommendation will be to download the app Foodie Recipes. This month, they’ve chosen 40 different options for the ultimate game day foods. If you already have this app, make sure you update to the latest version to gain access to the 40 different Super Bowl recipes.

Beer

Well, duh! Food and drink is probably the best part (for me) of the Super Bowl. Check out Beer Hunt which is an app you can use to track beer, discover new types, rate it, find recommendations, and have competitions with your friends. Just remember to always drink responsibly, folks!

Super Bowl App

Right from the National Football League themselves, introducing the Official Super Bowl XLVIII Interactive Game Program! Everything you need to know about the Denver Broncos and the Seattle Seahawks. Enjoy animated starting lineups and stadium renderings, Twitter and Instagram feeds, and quickly-updated photos and video from the game. Pretty much everything you need to stay on top of things during the game — all in one app!

Or, if you aren’t super into the Super Bowl, but you are into PUPPIES, check out the famous Puppy Bowl on Animal Planet. This year marks the tenth consecutive year, not quite 48, but still impressive.

“Puppy Bowl X brings viewers a lovable lineup that’s itching to play in a winning combination of terrier tackles, touchdowns, puppy penalties, fumbles and Fido first downs. This year’s big game is sure to be a tail-wagger. From barking beagles and spunky spaniels to everything in between, we’ve got the cutest players taking the field on the most action-packed Sunday of the year.”

The puppy bowl kicks off on February 2 @ 3pm.

So, which “Bowl” will you be watching? Puppy or Super?
