1. Beverages. Don't forget the beverages!! Water is nature's champagne, but this is no time to play taps. Buy the best bottle H20 on the market, and for some extra oohs and ahhs, add ice.
2. Food. Rooting for their favorite conference, guests will work up an appetite. Chips always delight everyone, but don't forget the dip. Remember: It's the "Pro Bowl," not the "Amateur Bowl." Ha ha.
3. Seating. What kind of host doesn't have chairs? Keep in mind, a couch is always a hit -- and you can't have too many pillows.
4. Tone it down. The intense NFC-AFC rivalry produces trash talk that often leads to violence. Stash the knives and guns under lock and key. Be prepared to step in and remind everybody it's just a game, and there will always be next year.
5. Wear your colors. Nothing revs a party like face paint. The AFC is Red, and the NFC is blue. Actually, you might want to check that. Maybe they change each year.
6. A TV. Make sure it works. Color, preferably, and put it in a prominent place, where all can watch. Consult local listings for time and station.
7. Grade the commercials. Unlike the Super Bowl, when the ads are new, these commericals will have aired all year. Thus, guests get their last chance to critique them.
8. Twister! Get out the mat and have your own halftime celebration.
9. Kareoke microphone. Get out the Mr. Microphone and let guests join in on the play-by-play. It's more fun than a barrel of Joe Bucks!
10. Hire some pros. Male and female. Nobody needs to go home without having been called for holding.
