With the Big Game coming up soon, I\u2019m sure you\u2019re starting to dream up your party ideas. And what\u2019s the most important part of a party? The snacks, of course! I teamed up with some of our favorite brands to create an awesome Snack Stadium for serving those delicious snacks on game day.<\/p>\n

\"How<\/a><\/p>\n

First up, you have to figure out what you\u2019ll be serving. I was able to make one stop at Walmart <\/a>and pick up some Big Game favorites like SNICKERS\u00ae, Skittles\u00ae, Pepsi\u2122, and TOSTITOS\u00ae.<\/p>\n

\"How<\/a><\/p>\n

Once you know what you\u2019ll be serving, you can figure out what size of stadium you\u2019ll need. I went with a standard cake pan as my \u201cfield\u201d and used additional cake stands for the stands. You could definitely use pans or bowls you already have around the house, but I like the disposable ones for easier clean up.<\/p>\n

\"How<\/a><\/p>\n

To create the height of the stands, I cut up some cardboard and taped it to the pans. Then, I used construction paper to cover the outside. I went with a black and white theme, but you could definitely personalize it for your favorite team.<\/p>\n

\"How<\/a><\/p>\n

Now, it\u2019s time to fill the pans. I used my TOSTITOS\u00ae Scoops on either side. Make sure to pour the chips in slowly so you don\u2019t knock the pans over. In the center we had TOSTITOS\u00ae Chunky Salsa and Queso.<\/p>\n

\"How<\/a><\/p>\n

Then, for the end zone stands, I used SNICKERS\u00ae Minis. I actually laid these in a couple at a time to keep them from all sliding down to the bottom. You’ll definitely want to keep an extra bag of these around to refill the pans (or to hide for yourself later).<\/p>\n

\"How<\/a><\/p>\n

I filled the corners with buckets of Skittles\u00ae for a quick, sweet bite in between plays. The Skittles\u00ae also give the Snack Stadium an extra pop of color. With the chips and SNICKERS\u00ae both being a more neutral color, my stadium definitely needed a little pop.<\/p>\n

\"How<\/a><\/p>\n

For some more fun color, I lined the outside of the stadium with Pepsi\u2122 and Diet Pepsi\u2122 12oz cans. I\u2019m also pretty obsessed with how pretty the pattern of the Pepsi\u2122 cans look. The\u00a0girls may love the design of the Snack Stadium more than the boys do!<\/p>\n

\"How<\/a><\/p>\n

Once you have it all set up, all that\u2019s left is to dig in! So, grab a can of Pepsi\u2122 and pop the top, you’re ready to cheer on your favorite team! Or maybe just pick out your favorite commercials…<\/p>\n

\"How<\/a><\/p>\n

Will you be hosting a party for the Big Game? What treats will you fill your Snack Stadium with?\u00a0You can see more ideas here.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
