Football fans are everywhere and tailgate parties are all the rage. Getting together with your fellow sports fans before the big game is a party like no other. These parties usually take place in the parking lots of big stadiums but if you don’t have tickets or just can’t wait to show off the new plasma TV, throw your own tailgate party at home. And you don’t have to wait for Super Bowl; indoor tailgate parties are perfect all season long.

Here are some great new ideas and resources to help you make the most of this football season.

Start with your dining and buffet tables. You can find your team’s logo on table cloths and table runners, like the ones at HandmadeCatalog.com. From here you can start to coordinate your tablescapes and other foot ball decorations.

Put out the pictures! Decorate with your personal game photos; put them in a NFL Frame, also available at HandmadeCatalog.com

Team Logo pre-printed paper plates, napkins, cups and other party supplies with NFL teams are available at many different websites like Footballparties.com. Paper goods make perfect sense for tailgating; they add to the theme and make for easy cleanup. Use napkins and dishes with your team’s colors to help the look come together.

New decorating kits make tailgate party prep a snap. NFL Decorating Kits, which include basic wall art and tablecloths, turn any televised game into an event. New Touchdown Kits, which include cut-outs, tissue footballs, cardboard figures and more, add interest and whimsy to your party. We found a these kits at piñatas.com.

Go Team! Cheering is much more exciting with pom-poms. Have plenty on hand in your team colors and pass them out to your guests. Helium balloons in team colors also add interest to your indoor tailgate party. Visit PartyMerchant.com for pom-poms and balloons, they even offer a football piñata.

Keep your guests entertained before the game and at halftime with these new football based games. Try Baggo, American Tailgator or even the Tailgate Toss. New back yard games with NFL themes add a little competition to your party. These new games are a new take on the classic bag toss and are fun for kids and adults. Add prizes and your party takes on a new twist that guests are sure to enjoy.

Of course your guests are sure to be thirsty and you can be ready with a wide range of tailgate party cocktails. Serve the Quaterback Sling or Incomplete Pass Martinis from Cocktails.com or maybe the Hot Shot Beer Cocktail from Sandra Lee of the Food Network.
