Watch Football, Get Drunk – The Ultimate Football Drinking Game for NFL Watch Parties
Football is already one of the most social sports to watch with tailgates, fantasy leagues, Sunday rituals, and now, Watch Football, Get Drunk takes it to the next level. Whether you’re following every play or only care about halftime commercials, this card-based drinking game turns every down and drive into a hilarious, unforgettable group experience.
Crafted for audiences 21 and older, this game combines real-time football triggers with fun party mechanics that keep everyone laughing from kickoff to the final whistle. It’s way more than "drink when there's a touchdown", it's a professionally designed experience that keeps the entire group engaged.

Why Watch Football, Get Drunk is the Best Football Drinking Game
Tied to Real Game Action
Each card’s rule or trigger is based on something that could happen during a live NFL or college football game. That means you're constantly watching and reacting, not zoning out or flipping through a basic list of rules. Even the quietest 3-and-out can set off a drinking challenge!
No Football Knowledge Required
Don’t know what a 2-point conversion is? No problem. This game is designed for everyone, from hardcore fans to people just there for the snacks. Whether you're yelling at a ref or asking what a safety is, you're still part of the fun.
Quick to Learn, Fun to Master
Secret Play cards give players hidden triggers to look for, like "if there is a 1st down" or "the ball is punted". When your condition happens, assign a drink. But beware: with Interception Attempts, they can guess your secret and reverse the drink back at you!
Group Engagement Throughout
This isn’t just for halftime or blowouts. With group vote cards, trivia, and physical mini-games, every moment of the game, and commercial breaks, is an opportunity for laughs, challenges, or debates.
Built for Any Football Occasion
The game works during NFL Sundays, Monday night games, college matchups, or even the Super Bowl. It’s adaptable, replayable, and hilarious every time.
How to Play & Game Highlights
Secret Play Cards
Players keep secret objectives that, when fulfilled by something on the screen, let them assign drinks. Examples include “if a flag is thrown” or “if the crowd boo’s.” Try to keep your card secret, guessing earns an Interception!

Always-in-Play Rules
Big game events, like “if there's a pick-six” or “blocked punt,” may trigger group-wide drinking rules. These add unpredictability and excitement.

Half Time Deck
During commercials, halftime, or injuries, players draw Half Time cards. These include trivia, group votes, challenges, or physical contests. Think: “Guess that team’s mascot” or “Vote who would be the worst quarterback here.”

Physical Mini-Games
Use the included mini foam football to do flick-based challenges that mimic football’s field goal attempts, all while adding drinks to the mix.
