    Typically don’t eat during games. Usually order something right before halftime if I’m out. Partial to chicken wings and potato skins. Nachos I love, but I have to focus on the nacho too much.

    Burgers and fries also a plus. Now am v. Hungry

    Pizza. Wings. Burgers. Hot “dawgs.” Chips & salsa, buffalo chicken dip or queso. My wife makes a mean cheese dip with meat in the crock pot. Geez is it football season yet???

    I bearly eat during a game: nuts, seeds, dried fruit and berries. Perhaps some potato or corn chips, or gluten free crackers.

    For a big game, i will try to have ho made* hot wings, which I will try to consume a few before the game and the rest at half-time constituting my meal. (Also some joes**, which are potato strips- potato cut long ways ~ 3/4 inch thick - which are partially nuked, then placed in the oven with olive oil and Italian dry seasoning and oregano to bake at the same time as the wings.)

    • ho made = home made - I make them myself -er, think what you want.
      • A place called Little Hipps in San Antonio (now closed) would sell "chicken and joes". Its joes were likely twice cooked like mine but in a pressure cooker/steamer, then the oven. Its seasoning was more salt than anything else - cannot remember.

    Depending on the time of the game depends on what I will make. Loaded nachos are a go to, pizza is a close second. If I'm out then it's bar food, burgers loaded tots, mozzarella sticks. Blooming onions are good. Just can't have them everyday.

    I’ll have to try it out. They also have great thick cut bacon and the jalapeño poppers are to die for.

    I get so nervous that I’m only good to drink during the games. Michelob Ultra is the go to. Might make some home made hummus with siracha and dip veggies in it.

    If it’s a late game I will grill up whatever looks good at the store on game day mornin.
