Unlike the Steelers' playbook, the plan for a good Super Bowl Sunday is breathtakingly simple: a big
screen, plenty of drink, greasy food, cheerleaders and some reckless gambling.
We've got you covered.
SET THE SCREEN:
There's no denying the fact that everything is better on plasma. So if you haven't gotten around to buying
one, ring Liman Video Rental (212-594-0086). They have plasmas in 42", 50", and,
for the size conscious, gargantuan 60" varieties. Their rates are reasonable and they'll bring it right to
your front door.
STAY HYDRATED:
B & E Beverage (212-243-6812) has more than 60 beers available (not counting
Bacardi Silver) for delivery by the case. Orders placed as late as this afternoon will arrive by end of day
Saturday. Try not to dip into the stash too much before gametime on Sunday.
EAT RIGHT:
Either BBQ or guac and chips (or both) is the way to go. If BBQ is your preference, the best in town is at
Daisy May's
(212-977-1500). A mouthwatering Super Bowl menu is available for delivery and includes both their Kansas
City Style Sweet & Sticky Ribs and the Chipotle Chile Chicken Wings, in addition to sides
that are a lot more satisfying than the third quarter. If it's the Tex-Mex you're after,
Dos
Caminos' (212-294-1000) Guac & Tacos Super Bowl menu gets you plenty of both.
Of course, those who prefer a more aggressive tack also have the option of ordering a giant whole roast suckling pig from
Spanky's.
GET A CHEERING SECTION:
Though there's plenty to be said for the Lingerie Bowl, there's more to be said for
stripper house calls. Centerfoldstrips.com provides ladies for
pre-game, half-time, or post-game "shows" (yes, they will come dressed in Steelers or Seahawks cheerleading
outfits; no, they will not mind getting you another beer from the kitchen). Best of all, an extensive
website allows you to handpick your cheerleaders ahead of time.
GO FOR BROKE:
There's plenty of gambling to be done at Betbug, but side bets are a good time
too. Wager on the actual number of minutes it takes to go from the two-minute warning to quarter's end, the
first player to embarrass himself with "Hi Mom" written on his hand, and which of your buddies' girlfriends
will be the first to ask who's playing.
Now you're ready for some football.
