Fantasy Football Draft Party

It's that time of year again-the Fall and for our family, this means lots of wonderful things. Cooler weather brings more time outdoors and SPORTS! We love football and one thing we host every year is the draft party for the fantasy football league. It's a fun event and all I do is make tasty treats for the drafters. I really enjoy doing it every year.

I made a small football field from guacamole with queso and salsa for the end zones. I crafted field goals out of slim jims and piped the field with sour cream. The guys loved it. Every year, the "Snack Stadium" has grown bigger and better. Last year's stadium was pretty spectacular and pretty hard to improve on. I mentioned at a game night that I wasn't going to make one this year and the guys were disappointed, so, I rallied and came up with an easier solution to make a pretty fun stadium for the party. Here's how I did it:

To make the stadium, I took banker's boxes and covered them with paper from a local teachers tools store. I also purchased some Cowboys banners because they didn't have generic NFL ones to decorate the boxes with.

Finally, for the center, I bought an extra long aluminum pan from Party City to fill with homemade guacamole and pipe with sour cream. It was demolished.

I filled the stadium with varying types of chips, pretzels and candy. Another hit!
