Now that your Super Bowl party is going to last all year long, it’s never been more important to consider the impact of all those wings-sauce stained paper napkins and red plastic beer cups on the great planet that brought you the great NY Giants: yep, Mother Earth!
Some websites have really super tips on how you can throw an eco-friendly Super Bowl party that your friends will think is on the steroids, like using reusable cloth napkins, china, and glassware.
Oh, stop cringing… It’s not that hard to have all of the football you want with less of the carbon footprint and smashy-smashy you don’t want. After all, green Philadelphia has had the greenest stadium and the Eagles have been the greenest team in the NFL since the early ‘90s, and you can be sure there’d be no eco-assault their Super Bowl parties. But probably no championship for the Eagles either.
Ok, back to your year-long Super Bowl party. What could be greener than letting nature take its course? Forget about the landfill-bound disposables. You can even forget about the cloth napkins and the smashy-smashies—they need to be washed and washing costs water. Why not just let your friends wipe their greasy hands on their shirts and take turns suckling straight from the beer tap? It was probably what they were doing by that magical 4th quarter anyway.

The last paragraph of the superbowl blog made me laugh out loud. Another idea might be to make sure everyone is well blasted before coming to the party. No memory - no inhibitions - no shame. But good grief - what could be the clean up. Do you have green planet ideas about that? Loved the blog. biten
