Super Bowl Party Favors: Fun Ideas for Your Game Day Bash

For quick, budget-friendly favors, these NFL Drive Loot Bags are a no-brainer for small Super Bowl gatherings; each $2.65 pack includes eight bags with a football-themed design that fits any team's vibe. In our testing, they handled candy, mini chips, and trinkets well, but the plastic can tear if overstuffed or used for heavier items. Designs may vary and aren't team-specific, so plan for a neutral look, and consider buying multiple packs if you're hosting a larger crew or want backups for last-minute guests.

Variety packs are party gold, and Frito-Lay's Classic Mix covers fan favorites in handy 1 oz bags, perfect for a snack stadium, kid favors, or quick halftime grabs. In our testing, the individual portions kept things tidy and helped with portion control, though a single bag won't satisfy bigger appetites. We suggest buying an extra box in case of crushed or stale bags from certain sellers, but overall it's an affordable crowd-pleaser that's easy to hand out.

Sooners fans will appreciate these officially licensed waterless tattoos for fast, spirited face and nail looks. In our testing, application and removal were quick, and the 4" x 7" sheet plus glitter face decals and nail decals covered a small watch party nicely. That said, the sheet is limited in quantity and can feel pricey per decal, so plan on multiple packs for bigger groups. If you're hosting mixed fan bases, consider pairing with generic football stickers to stretch the theme.

Want quick game-day eye black without the mess? This Franklin Sports stick is a budget-friendly party favor that applies easily and, in our testing, stayed put even through sweaty celebrations. Be prepared for some variability - several users report sticks that crumble on first use or leave stubborn stains on skin, so keep makeup remover or oil-based wipes handy. At under five bucks, we suggest buying a couple extras to cover duds and last-minute guests.

If your crew includes Bills fans, this FOCO ribbed beanie is an easy win; we liked the officially licensed cuff logo and the stretchy, one-size-fits-most fit during our review. The acrylic build keeps heads warm on chilly porch viewings or halftime runs outside, though it's less breathable than natural fibers and lacks premium touches like a fleece lining. We found the one-size approach works for most, but very small or large heads may not love the fit, so it's better as a prize or host gift than a universal favor.

A backyard toss during commercials is a must, and this Wilson NFL Super Grip football delivers a tacky composite cover that feels secure right out of the box. We found the junior size is great for kids ages 9–12 and casual play, although rough surfaces like concrete will scuff it and heavy use can diminish the grip. At this price, it's a solid branded pick for friendly pregame warmups; just check packaging on arrival, as delivery quality has varied from some sellers.

Bring some friendly competition to the coffee table with this tabletop cornhole set. The solid wood build feels substantial, and in our testing the adjustable launchers made it easy to tailor difficulty for kids and adults; the kit includes eight beanbags and score pegs, too. A few buyers report stiff or misaligned flippers and occasional beanbag durability issues, so our experience shows a quick adjustment and gentle use help. It's larger than some expect - check the dimensions to ensure your surface fits.

We like this Big Game photo booth props kit for instant halftime laughs and social posts. During our review, the heavy cardstock held up to repeated handling, and the 20 pre-cut pieces with included sticks and adhesive made assembly straightforward - just set aside a few minutes before kickoff. Keep in mind the color palette leans red/yellow or red/gold, which may clash with some team schemes, and it's a choking hazard for kids under 3. Made in the USA is a nice bonus.

Transform a blank wall into a photo-ready end zone with Beistle's Football Field Backdrop; at 4' x 30', it covers a big area and instantly sets a game-day mood. During our review, the realistic stadium print looked great in photos, though the thin plastic feels a bit like a tablecloth and benefits from painter's tape or clips for a smooth hang. Our experience shows it's perfect for spacious basements or garages; in smaller rooms, plan to trim sections to fit and avoid wrinkles so your guests have a clean backdrop.

Nothing loosens up a Super Bowl photo booth like playful props, and this Amscan kit delivers a football-centric set (listings often show around 14 pieces) for just $6.99. In our testing, guests loved the game-day designs, but the cardstock-style material can bend or tear with heavy handling, so keep a few spares and encourage gentle use. They're best for one or two parties rather than long-term reuse, as colors and paper wear down over time, yet they're a low-cost way to capture shareable memories.

Bears loyalists will get plenty of use from this Tervis Classic Tumbler, which sports official team graphics and double-wall insulation to keep coffee hot and sodas cold. During our review, the BPA-free travel lid fit most car cup holders and made it an easy grab for tailgates or commutes. Do note some users see leaking under the lid's lip and graphics that peel or fade over time. If issues arise, several buyers report slow customer service, so manage warranty expectations.

For guests who nurse a drink through the fourth quarter, the Yeti Rambler Colster kept our cans cold noticeably longer than basic neoprene koozies in testing. The durable stainless-steel build shrugs off drops and backyard use, and the design secures standard 12 oz cans and many bottles, though some slim or tall cans won't fit. It's heavier and pricier than foam sleeves, so we like it as a premium prize or host upgrade rather than a mass favor, especially when portability is a priority.

For an upgrade over plastic party cups, the 20 oz Ball Aluminum Cup keeps drinks colder longer and feels sturdy in the hand, plus it's 100% recyclable. We found they're durable enough to reuse and dishwasher-safe, which cuts down on single-use waste; just note they can dent if dropped and the surface gets chilly with iced beverages. Packs are often small—commonly 10—so for bigger crowds you'll want multiple sleeves, but guests appreciate the premium feel and eco-friendlier choice.

Set up a kid-friendly station for signs and scoreboards with Crayola's Ultra Clean Washable Markers—the bright, highly pigmented colors pop on poster board and wipe off skin and most fabrics easily. During our review, the broad/conical tips made it simple for kids to switch between thick banners and finer details by changing the angle, which speeds up group projects. Ink can require extra scrubbing on textured surfaces and the pack costs more than off-brand options, so remind little artists to cap markers tightly to avoid premature drying.

For a kid-friendly favor that doubles as a quiet-time activity, these Scratch Art Rainbow Mini Notes are easy wins. You get 125 mini notes and a wooden stylus in a handy desktop dispenser, so in our testing they were simple to hand out between quarters. Be aware the rainbow backing can skew mostly blue or green on some sheets, and the black coating sheds small flakes - lay down a placemat or tray to catch the mess. Great for predictions, doodles, or scoreboard tallies.

These multi-color LED foam batons bring instant celebration energy; our experience shows the bright LEDs and multiple light modes are perfect for kickoff intros, touchdown dances, and impromptu halftime shows. They're lightweight and arrive with batteries pre-installed, so you can hand them out right at the door and get the crowd waving in seconds. Some units may fail after limited use and the foam isn't easy to customize, so consider extras and plan for disposal if electronic waste is a concern.

Lighting sets the mood, and this Govee strip makes your space pop with RGBIC segments that display different colors at once - perfect for cycling team hues on game night. It integrates with Apple, Google, and Alexa via Matter, and the flexible silicone coating adds durability and light water/dust resistance for patios. In our testing, adhesion varied by surface and Wi-Fi occasionally required re-pairing; extra clips and a stable 2.4 GHz network helped. Plan your layout first - the fixed connectors limit extending or splitting runs.

For packing snacks and sending guests home with leftovers, the Stasher Sandwich Bag is a smart, reusable pick. The thick silicone feels durable and washes up easily in the dishwasher; during our review, it cut down on single-use plastic without fuss. Note the opening can be narrow for bulky sandwiches and the bag can feel a bit bulky in tight coolers or lunch totes. Certain foods may stain silicone - leaving it in sunlight can help lift discoloration.

If you're stocking your drink station, the Klean Kanteen 16oz Pint Cup is a sturdy, party-proof upgrade to disposables. Made from 18/8 stainless steel, it stacks easily, travels light, and is dishwasher-safe; in our testing, the optional straw and tumbler lids added handy versatility. Just note the single-wall design won't insulate, so cold drinks warm up and condensation can form, and some users report paint chipping over time. A few reviewers also say capacity feels shy of 16 ounces, so plan pours accordingly.
