Nothing brings people together quite like rooting for their favorite sports team. The World Series is no exception, and gives you a great reason to throw a party. Get your “team” together and host a fun World Series Party!
Decorations
Your favorite team’s colors are an easy place to start when you’re decorating. Hit the party store for some streamers, plates, cutlery, and tablecloths in alternating colors. For an easy centerpiece, fill a tin pail with baseballs. Voila!
If your team colors aren’t the best, sticking with red, white, and blue is a classic look. After all, baseball is as American as apple pie!
Food and Drink
Think finger foods. Little smokies, wings, sliders, pigs in a blanket, and veggie trays are always winning menu items when you’re watching a game. If you want to stay more on “theme” try hot dogs, nachos, and corn dogs. A fun addition is an ice cream sundae bar, complete with little batting helmet bowls! Decorate sugar cookies or cupcakes to look like baseballs, or go all out and make a baseball diamond cake for dessert.
If you don’t feel like doing all the work yourself, hire a Caterer or Concessions company to come in and make your life easier. A Desserts company can supply all kinds of creative baseball-themed treats, too!
Entertainment
In this case, the main entertainment is going to be the game, of course! But if you’d like to take things a bit further, you could have some fun themed games. Try cutting plywood into a big circle (paint as a baseball) and cut vertical smaller circles from top to bottom labeled with each base. Have guests test their skills with a bean bag toss through the holes.
If you’d rather use your brain power, trivia is always fun! Find some history on your favorite team, gather some prizes, and presto. Instant trivia night!
