The Put-Together Get-Together Starter Kit

Game Day Ideas & Free Hosting Checklist

The game can be unpredictable. Your hosting plan doesn't have to be.

A free game day checklist for a crowd that is fed, a screen everyone can see, and a host who gets to watch, too.

You deserve to see more than the score from the kitchen.

“I built it for you because I needed it too.”

Three Game Day gathering ideas to make your own

A dips-and-snacks watch party

Choose a simple spread guests can help themselves to. Arrange the food where refills will not interrupt everyone's view.

A chili-and-toppings game day

Make the main ahead, ask guests to bring toppings or sides, and set the serving area up before kickoff.

A backyard viewing get-together

Test the screen, sound, and connection outdoors. Plan seating and an indoor alternative if the weather changes.
