It's the day of the big game and you've got everything ready for your Super Bowl party. Grills are heating up and gluttony of food options like burgers, steaks, brats, shrimp, nuts, chips, dips, pizzas, wings, and practically anything consumable is ready for the kickoff later today. Squares have been drawn up and there are even some who indulge in putting together some questionnaire sheets with a few of the obscure proposition bets to be found online.
 
 
I always find those proposition bets to be the most fun to include at a good party.
 
 
I was scanning the internet looking for some of them and came across a great list with practically everything you could ask for. Things like the over under on the amount of sacks Robert Mathis will have (0.5), to the longest rushing attempt of Joseph Addai (13.5), to who will have more receiving yards between Devery Henderson and Austin Collie (Henderson is the favorite), there is a bet for everything involved in the game. The winner of the coin toss, whether there will be a touchdown before the first punt, and who the MVP will be, who will make the first reception in the game, etc. All are actual options for those who create a sheet. Now, I am not a betting man, nor do I endorse it. But for those who put them together for fun, there are even more obscure ones and I found some really good ones at nsawins.com (click here to check out the complete list)

For those who love to have a little additional fun by including a questionnaire for their guests to fill out, consider these. Just make sure to have a designated record keeper to keep a tally on those that require a count.
 
 
Have fun and enjoy the big game!
