Get in the Game Back to Events
Whether you’re watching the big game from the comfort of home or gearing up for a tailgate party, throw a winning celebration with these tips:
Display your team spirit. From streamers and balloons to napkins and plates, fill your house with your favorite team’s colors. If you’re tailgating, pack washable window paint, streamers and flags to make your vehicle stand out.
Set up a spread of food that lasts from pregame to overtime. Prepare warm foods, such as chili or hot dips, in a slow cooker. If you plan to transport slow-cooked foods, keep them warm by wrapping the lid of the crockery dish in foil and covering the rest of the dish with towels. Store cold foods and beverages in the refrigerator or ice-filled coolers until you’re ready to serve. Stop by your neighborhood Publix to score game-day goodies, and be sure to check out the custom sports-theme cakes from the Publix Bakery. Game days are popular, so order items from your Publix Bakery and Deli at least 48 hours in advance to ensure you get exactly what you need.
Look over this convenient checklist to make sure you don’t leave home without your tailgating supplies. And when the game is over, follow these tips for quick cleanup.
