No Super Bowl party game combines the craziness of complete and total randomness with the heart-pumping thrill of leaning into every play like Super Bowl Squares.

Up to 100 people can participate in this game, which involves selecting a square on a 10x10 board (as shown above). The numbers assigned to each axis represent the second digit of the respective teams' scores. For example, if before Super Bowl 59 you select (or are awarded) the 4-7 square, with the Kansas City Chiefs on the "4" axis and the Philadelphia Eagles on the "7" axis, you needed the Chiefs' score to end in 4, and the Eagles' tally to end in 7.

Prizes are awarded at the end of each quarter, with the biggest haul usually saved for the final score.

Sportsbook Review's printable Super Bowl Squares sheet provides you with a quick and easy way to get the fun started, while the page also provides a detailed explanation of the rules. So grab that Super Bowl Squares sheet and give your party guests a reason to tweet post about you the next day!

Super Bowl Bingo

  • # of People: 4-8, ideally
  • Difficulty: Easy
  • Fun Factor⭐⭐⭐⭐
  • What Can You Win? The privilege of yelling "Bingo!" into the ear holes of your friends and loved ones

Who among us hasn't experienced (or at least dreamed of) the elation of shouting that magic five-letter word after completing a row, a box, an X or a full card?

For the uninitiated, a Super Bowl bingo card is a set of 25 squares (or 24, if your version features a free center square like ours), each containing an event participants can track throughout the game. Once an event is completed, players can mark off the square containing that event. Some will happen during the game, while others won't be known until after the Super Bowl is over.

The beauty of a game like this is that there really is no limit to who can participate. Youngsters and oldsters, casual NFL watchers and die-hard fans, even people who have never even seen a football before ... all can take part.

It's one of the most universally beloved Super Bowl party games out there – so check out our Super Bowl bingo cards and make the night even greater!

Super Bowl prop bets

  • # of People: As many as you like!
  • Difficulty: Easy
  • Fun Factor⭐⭐⭐⭐
  • What Can You Win? Some of your friends' money – and (maybe) a little extra from the sportsbooks

Download our FREE printable Super Bowl game, novelty and Halftime Show prop sheets!

If you missed out on Sportsbook Review's printable Super Bowl prop bet sheet last year, you can have a look here – and then correct that mistake for Super Bowl 60.

The prop bet sheet premise is simple: Participants check off what they think will happen for each of the items on the sheet, and the player with the most correct answers wins. And many of these props appear in Super Bowl menus across all of the best sports betting sites – so if you're feeling confident, you can grow your betting bankroll as well.

For your convenience, we have arranged most events chronologically on our Super Bowl props sheet, making it easy to follow along from the first note of the national anthem to the last drop of Gatorade spilled on the game-winning head coach.

Prop picks might eventually become the most popular way to gamify the Big Game. So get on board, and supercharge your Super Bowl party.

Super Bowl drinking game

  • # of People: 2-4 for complete sheets, 6-8 if you cut up the sheets and hand out cards instead
  • Difficulty: Easy at first, but probably more difficult as the night goes on
  • Fun Factor⭐⭐⭐⭐
  • What Can You Win? A warm, fuzzy feeling

Download our FREE printable Super Bowl drinking game cards!

Let's start with a qualifier: What you choose to include as part of any Super Bowl drinking game is completely up to you. Imbibing isn't everyone's preference, and that's OK! Make it a milk drinking game. Roll with tomato juice. Mix together seven different sodas and give that a whirl. Your choice!

Whatever your type and flavor of beverage, this game is as straightforward as it comes (at least at the beginning of the night): every time something on your sheet or card happens, you take a drink. The winner is either the player with the most drinks, or the fewest drinks, depending on which rules your games master adopts.

Drinking is only one option here, as well: You could opt to have contestants eat a pepper, or sing a line from their least favorite song instead. Again, flexibility is key here!

Super Bowl touchdown contest

  • # of People: Ideally, no more than 24
  • Difficulty: Easy
  • Fun Factor⭐⭐⭐⭐
  • What Can You Win? Prizes, glory – and maybe even a hat

Download our FREE printable Super Bowl touchdown contest player lists!

If you've ever watched "Whose Line is it Anyway?", you're no doubt familiar with the "Scenes From a Hat" game in which players are given scenarios presented by the audience ("Things You Would Say About a Carrot But Not About Your Wife", for example.)

This is not that – but it's similar in that there is a hat present, and you are tasked with pulling something out of it. The game coordinator places the names of players included in our Super Bowl anytime touchdown scorer bets on both teams into the hat, and you draw one. In the standard game, the participant holding the name of the player who scores the game's final touchdown is declared the winner; some games switch to the player who scores the first touchdown, but that could end the game in an awful hurry.

However your party host runs your Super Bowl touchdown contest, be sure to ask to keep the hat if you win as a memento of your triumphant victory. You'll probably be asked to leave – but no one can take away your W.

Super Bowl trivia

  • # of People: Ideal for as many as 16 (divided into four-person teams)
  • Difficulty: As high or low as the trivia master decides
  • Fun Factor⭐⭐⭐⭐
  • What Can You Win? Trivia champion bragging rights (which, to some, are better than money)

Download our FREE printable Super Bowl trivia game!

We all have "that friend": the one who takes trivia a little more seriously than most. Make sure to bring him or her as your Super Bowl party plus-one if the host has Super Bowl trivia on the menu.

Super Bowl trivia might be one of the easiest games to put together; simply do a little Google research to find some interesting facts related to the Big Game, cram them into a PDF and print them out for your enthusiastic guests! And if you would rather save your time, we've done the legwork for you.

The trivia master has options here, as well. Perhaps he or she would prefer to read the trivia questions aloud, or spread them out over the course of the game rather than have participants answer them all at once. It's great to have choices!

Super Bowl word games

  • # of People: 1 (or 2 if you prefer couple-y puzzle solving)
  • Difficulty: Easy
  • Fun Factor⭐⭐⭐⭐
  • What Can You Win? The satisfaction of multiple completed puzzles

Download our FREE printable Super Bowl crossword puzzle (with answer sheet) and word search!

Some people prefer to do their Super Bowl celebrating in solitude – and we have a little something for them, as well.

We've put together a Super Bowl crossword puzzle (with answer key) and a Super Bowl word search, both of which are designed to give your mind a test (but nothing too strenuous). Finish it on your own, ask a friend for help, or get a bunch of people together and see who can finish the puzzles the fastest.

Best of all, like everything else in this guide, our puzzles are completely free! So sharpen those pencils and tackle our Super Bowl 2026 word games (pun fully intended).

Other Super Bowl party games

  • "Rate the Commercials": Participants are given "authorized commercial rating devices" (numbers glued to Popsicle sticks) and are instructed to rate each commercial from 1-10 as it airs. The game convenor then determines, based completely on his or her own opinion, whose score is the most accurate. Sure to end friendships, but a small price to pay for such a fun game.
  • Touchdown dance-off: We've all thought about how we would celebrate a touchdown in the NFL (yes, you have.) This contest allows people to channel their inner football star with their own TD dances, judged by one or several impartial observers. Helpful hint: Do not run this game if you own very small loose pets and/or glass-top furniture.
  • "Guess the Next Penalty": Rule No. 1: Guess the next penalty. There is no rule No. 2. The host awards points (possibly in the form of yellow mini-flags or maybe Post-It Notes or bananas) for every correct answer, with the player with the most flags earning the win. (Incidentally, the Super Bowl team with the most flags on Feb. 8 probably won't earn the win.)
  • Food challenges: I'm not talking "Who Can Build the Largest Spumoni Super Bowl Stadium," either, although I suppose you could go in that direction. This is more about things like eating contests (wings would be a popular one), endurance challenges (eight hot dogs and eight beers in four quarters: who can do it?) or quality competitions (whose guac is best?).
  • Super Bowl scavenger hunt: This one involves a little more work than some people might be comfortable with, but if your party group is a little more active, you could put together a fun scavenger hunt with football items as the theme. Be sure to keep it simple, though. It might be difficult for your players if you have items like "the actual Travis Kelce" on the list.

What time is the Super Bowl?

The 2026 Super Bowl is slated for Feb. 8 at 6:30 p.m. ET at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif, the home of the San Francisco 49ers.
