There's nothing like game day food, and with the championship finally here, it's time for the ultimate spread. While we love a good party sub and beer moment, there's more to hosting a party for the Super Bowl than just ordering some wings. Party ideas like a DIY chili bar, festive cheese boards and even a fun photo booth moment can make the game feel extra special. Whether you're rooting for your favorite team or are just here for the commercials, everyone can agree that they're here for the food.

Let's face it, whether your team is in the championship or not, game day food gives everyone a reason to celebrate. This affordable t-shirt from Etsy is a cheeky way to show where your true priorities lie.

When you're putting out an appetizer spread or need to bring something for a potluck, this festive cheese board from Harry & David is sure to be a crowd-pleaser. The sausage "football" really brings the game home.

Snacks are super important for making it through all four quarters. These individually packed bags of flavored popcorns are perfect for kids and adults alike who just need a little something after halftime.

Looking to add an all-star chili bar to your spread this year? Petro's Chili and Chips offers party packs on Goldbelly that make putting out a savory spread as easy as clicking "add to cart."

Of course, you'll need somewhere to store beverages for the big game. This football field cooler is a fun way to store sodas, beers and more for a crowd.

$44.99

Taking a more DIY approach? Fill this snack stadium with all the fixings, and it's sure to impress your guests. There's enough space for chips, dips, pigs in a blanket and more, so you won't have to refill it all night long.

$18.49

Make a cute photo booth moment for your family and friends. This set, sold on Amazon, can fit over a blank wall or closet for a great Instagram moment before kickoff.

From $16.35

Make your party extra-themed this year with official paper products of this year's game. You'll find cups, plates, napkins and tabelcloths at the Amazon shop that all qualify for two-day shipping if you're running behind.
