Getting ready for the Superbowl and Celebrating the BIG day can be a lot of fun, but it can also be a LOT of work. This year I was lucky to be working with Bob Evans to try out some great recipes that allows my family and I to have a blast on Superbowl Sunday.

All of these recipes were so good and everyone that came over for the game simply loved them! What I loved was how easy it was to make these recipes and how even someone that might not be completely cooking inclined can make these recipes without issues arising.
I also went onto the Bob Evans Website and was happy to find a ton of other great recipes like the ones above that you can use with Bob Evans Sausage. If you like Sausage, you should definitely check out Bob Evans and their website, as you too will be impressed!

Knockers – A Great Tailgating Game for Football Season

by Leave a Comment

About the Game
Knock it off! Knockers is a portable backyard/tailgating game that is easy to set up and fun to play! Teams compete by throwing a flying disk at the Knocker, trying to knock it off, while the opposing team attempts to catch the Knocker and the flying disk. Knockers comes in a reusable carry case that allows you to easily take it to your favorite sporting event. It’s fun for the whole family! The newest tailgate game sensation!

My Take on the GameI love a good tailgate and along with tailgating comes tailgating games. I have played a number of them over the years, from ladderball to simply tossing around the old pigskin, they all were fun. I was excited to find this game out from little kids inc. I brought the game to a neighborhood gathering and the neighbors (and I) had a blast. This game was definitely a hit to the party and will be a game I bring with me to the tailgating parties that I will be going to this fall. On a different note, one thing that I really liked about this was the carry case that it came in. Lightweight and portable, this game was made for ease of travel. So if you are looking for a great game this tailgating season, look no further than Knockers.
