If you’ve never thought about the beauty of watching the football from the comfort of your own home, then think again. Nowadays, it’s easier than ever to create the perfect environment for you and your friends or family to enjoy the match. You might even find you prefer it to the pub. We’re going to look at some of the best products you can find and transform your home and if you’re on a budget, we can also help with the savings available through this Wayfair discount code.
Refreshments
While you won’t be expected to serve a 3-course meal, it’s important to make sure that you and your guests have enough snacks and drinks to enjoy the entire game. You can easily stock up on healthy (or unhealthy) snacks for everyone to enjoy, as well as beer and soft drinks to accompany them. Things like crisps and dips are hassle-free with no preparation needed and are ideal for the occasion. Make sure you’ve got all your supplies in advance!
Bar table
Unless you’ve got a special room dedicated to sports and games, your most likely destination for watching the match is probably going to be the living room. If you haven’t got a bar table in your home, it’s an essential item for game days. To keep you and your guests hydrated and refreshed, you need a table that is easily accessible for your drinks and snacks. If there’s a big crowd, it might be best to have more than one side table or coffee table so everyone has easy access. You can even find a bar table that doubles up as a beverage cooling tub, which means you don’t even need to get up to grab a cold beer. Any type of bar table will also help to create the perfect pub atmosphere.
Mini fridge
While we’re on the subject of cold beers, this is one of the advantages you may think the pub has over the option of staying home, but you can solve this problem easily. All you need is a small mini bar style fridge to keep them cool without having to leave the room, and potentially missing a crucial goal. You can then pick the most suitable moments to restock from your main fridge and you’ll always be ready to toast those special moments during the game.
Seating
Comfortable seating is also a top priority. You may not be able to fit everyone in your usual sofa space so think about whether you need to get additional chairs, beanbags, cushions, or stools so that everyone can relax. If you’re not able to fork out for new seating solutions, think about outdoor chairs you may already have which can be extremely comfortable, especially if they have convenient cup holders attached!
TV positioning
If you have a large screen, then, of course, it’s a bonus, but you don’t actually need to have a massive TV to enjoy the match. The important thing is to make sure that everyone can see it, and it’s usually best if the TV is mounted on the wall. Think about positioning chairs and other furniture in a way that no one’s view will be blocked and if necessary, you can always remove certain items from the room that are not essential for game day, giving you more space. If you’re worried that your TV screen is going to cut it, you can always consider using a projector. On the other hand, if you are considering splashing out on a new TV, check out these independent expert reviews to help you choose the right one.
