It’s almost here! Prepare the snacks! Make sure the TV is working! We’re talking about the Super Bowl of course, which will grace us with its presence this Sunday, February 3rd. Before we know it, we’ll be watching the Los Angeles Rams and New England Patriots battle it out — but most importantly, we’ll be battling fellow partygoers for snacks. Because if there’s one thing we love more than some healthy competition and sportsmanship, it’s delicious dips, nacho cheese, and finger foods galore. And you better believe we’re going to be Instagramming all of this edible treasure for our followers (while drooling over everything they’re posting, of course).
The best part about the Super Bowl — other than the game and food, that is — is getting together with the people you love to enjoy an event together. It’s about community, which can extend to social media as well. I mean, who isn’t going to be following all of the hilarious tweets and delicious #foodporn Instagrams being posted that day?
To prepare for what is going to be an entertaining game, we’re getting our Instagram captions prepped and ready — mostly so we can spend more time focused on the TV. We’ve got solid food and football puns with a few inspirational quotes for good measure. The best of both worlds.
1. If you’re cooking and have leftover thyme: “Thyme out.”
This took us a second, but all that brain power was completely worth it.
2. Serving fries? Because “time fries when you’re cheering your team on to victory!”
Can’t think of any food puns? It’s time to ketchup! Ha. Get it?
3. “WINNING is not everything — but making the EFFORT to win is.” – Vince Lombardi
Straight from a legend. Let the Super Bowl serve as inspiration for all your goals.
4. “Snacks > Football”
Make your stance on football loud and clear. And pass the dip while you’re at it!
5. Inspired by the above: “Super bowl? More like super full.”
Our stomachs are waiting to be filled!
6. “Can somebody get me my quarter back?”
Bonus points if someone actually owes you money!
7. And who doesn’t have wings they can play around with for a “personal fowl”?
Too. Many. Fowls. You’ve got to be clucking kidding us right now.
8. Speaking of quarterbacks: “My wife speaks five languages. I always tell her I speak two: English and football.” — Tom Brady
This also works if you’re a fan of Gisele, who can rock a catwalk like no one’s business.
9. “Soup or bowl Sunday” will work brilliantly if you are serving soup at your party.
We are souper excited about this one.
10. “Time fries when you’re having fun,” but also when you’re having fries that look like this:
We only have fries for you, Super Bowl.
11. “I like big punts and I cannot lie.”
We also like big puns and we cannot lie.
12. Serving pickles? Simply say, “[Team of choice] is kind of a big dill.”
It seems that we’ve gotten ourselves in a little… pickle. (Sorry!)
13. “It’s a hole new ball game” is perfect for if you have donuts on hand.
Donut interrupt us while we are watching the Super Bowl.
14. For that homemade chili you worked so hard on: “This chili is the real souper bowl winner.”
And if you have an extra spicy chili: “The heat is on.”
15. Serving pizza? We’ve got you covered with: “[Opposing team] better be ready to bite the crust.”
We’re not afraid to get cheesy!
16. If you can’t get enough, let your followers know: “Football is the one habit I can’t kick.”
Get it? Because they kick the football. We’ll show ourselves out now…
17. Serving pasta? “Pasta la vista, [opposing team].”
Are you starting to catch our drift?
18. “Catch me sliding into the end zone” is perfect for all those sliders you whipped up.
Say cheese! (But really, there’s going to be cheese, right?)
19. “In life, as in football, you won’t go far unless you know where the goalposts are.” — Arnold H. Glasow
This one is for everyone who takes the Super Bowl seriously.
20. And for everyone who doesn’t take it seriously, “#sports” is always a solid option.
#WeAreOnlyHereForTheSnacks #PleasePassTheNachos
21. For those who need a crash course in football: “Don’t know much about football, guess I’ll just wing it.”
Oh, we’ll wing it alright.
22. So people make no mistake, just write, “Hut hut sike! I’m just here for the food.”
It’s important to be honest about your intentions (especially so you won’t get dragged into any football debates).
23. “A CHAMPION is simply someone who did NOT give up when they wanted to.” – Tom Landry
Who doesn’t like an inspirational quote or two (especially if your team loses)?
