Super Bowl XLIX Party Quiz


I love Super Bowl parties.  Ever since I was young, I've enjoyed the social gatherings they bring and all the delicious food everyone supplies.  

I almost had my first kiss at a Super Bowl party, but I chickened out.  I was in the 7th grade and Brad was so dreamy, but I was wearing this stupid Sylvester and Tweety shirt which had a mustard stain on it and I was feeling less than glamorous.  But I digress.

The past few years we have played a fun trivia game while watching the game progress that makes it more entertaining for even the non-fans of the party.  My host from previous years always wrote out the quiz, but since I am going to a different party this year, I didn't want to miss the fun and created my own list.  I used questions from other blogs and added a few of my own.

It is fun to liven up the answers and see who is really paying attention by tossing in funny choice selections, including the host or popular party guests.

The winner gets their name written on a football and it is passed down each year (or you can just give them a prize - 6-pack of beer, maybe?)  and they get bragging rights.


In case you are looking for a little fun for your own party, here is my quiz for this year.
