Super Bowl 60 Drinking Game Ideas to Try at Your Party

Super Bowl 60 Drinking Game Ideas to Try at Your Party

Playing Super Bowl drinking games is an easy and efficient way to keep everyone laughing from kickoff to confetti at your party for the big game. Below, I’m sharing a mix of classic and creative ideas with simple Super Bowl drinking game rules you can tweak based on your crowd.

Quick note before we start:

These games are meant to be lighthearted and optional. Please, drink responsibly, know your limits, and never drink and drive. If you’re not drinking alcohol, you can still play with water, soda, or mocktails and keep the fun going.

Best Super Bowl Drinking Games List

Here are the best Super Bowl drinking games for parties:

1) The Classic Super Bowl Sip-or-Shot Game

This is the easiest Super Bowl drinking game 2026 setup because it works for casual fans and football diehards.

Game Rules (Sip vs. Shot Triggers)

Take 1 sip when:

  • Your team gets a first down
  • The announcers say “momentum
  • A flag is thrown (any penalty)
  • A replay angle is shown in slow motion

Take 2 sips when:

  • There’s a sack
  • A team converts on 3rd down
  • The broadcast shows a coach yelling into a headset

Take a shot (or finish your drink) when:

  • A touchdown happens
  • There’s a turnover (interception or fumble)
  • A kicker misses a field goal or extra point

Party-friendly option: Replace shots with “3 big sips”, so everyone survives the fourth quarter.

2) Big Play Bingo (Super Bowl Party Edition)

Everyone fills out a “bingo card” (you can write it on paper) with common Super Bowl moments. You can also do this using our free Super Bowl squares template.

Super Bowl Bingo Squares (Examples)

  • “They need to establish the run”
  • A player’s childhood photo appears
  • Someone says, “This is why they paid him”
  • Crowd shot of someone in face paint
  • Coach challenge flag appears
  • A ball hits the camera wire angle

Rules

  • Sip when one of your squares happens
  • 2 sips if you complete a row
  • Finish your drink if you get a full bingo

Bonus twist: If two people mark the same square at the same time, both sip.

3) Commercial Break Chaos

Let’s be honest: commercials are half the reason people show up. This is a Super Bowl party drinking game for groups that love the ads.

Commercial Rules

Sip when:

  • A celebrity appears
  • There’s a talking animal
  • A commercial has an inspirational speech tone

2 sips when:

  • A commercial is clearly a movie trailer
  • A product is revealed only at the very end
  • Someone says “game day”

Shot / Big chug when:

  • A commercial makes someone say, “Wait…what was that even for?”
  • A commercial is so good the room actually claps

Host tip: If your party is more “snack-focused,” swap drinks for bites of wings or chips.

4) Halftime Headliner Rules

The Super Bowl halftime show is the perfect reset moment—especially if the game has been tough to watch.

Halftime Drinking Game Rules

Sip when:

  • The performer changes outfits
  • There’s a surprise guest
  • The camera pans to the crowd singing along

2 sips when:

  • A classic hit song starts, and everyone recognizes it instantly
  • There’s an obvious “big stage prop” reveal

Shot/Finish when:

  • Fireworks go off
  • The performance includes a dramatic slow song + spotlight moment

Commercial-halftime combo rule: If a halftime commercial immediately becomes the “best one of the night,” everyone takes 2 sips.

5) Broadcast Narratives Game (2026 Edition)

This is the “unique to this Super Bowl” game—built for storyline overload. If you want the best Super Bowl drinking games for parties that get people laughing fast, this is it.

The Idea

You drink when the broadcasters obsess over specific talking points.

Super Bowl Drinking Game Rules (Broadcast Edition)

Sip when:

  • The announcers compare Drake Maye to Tom Brady
  • They mention one of Sam Darnold’s former teams
  • Someone says “legacy”
  • A graphic pops up showing “career stats” mid-drive
  • Anytime the Super Bowl 60 odds are referenced, whether vocally, or with a graphic.

2 sips when:

  • They say, “This is what makes him special”
  • They mention “playing in the cold” even though they’re indoors
  • The broadcast uses the phrase “two-minute drill” more than once on the same drive
  • Whenever they show a replay of Malcolm Butler’s interception to seal New England’s win over Seattle in Super Bowl 49.

Shot/Big penalty sip when:

  • They replay the same storyline three separate times
  • The broadcast says, “You can’t write a script like this”
  • It’s referenced that Sam Darnold said he saw ghosts in a 2019 game against the Patriots while with the New York Jets.
  • Any time they reference Pete Carroll’s decision to pass instead of running the ball with Marshawn Lynch at Super Bowl 49.

Make it your own: Swap in your team’s most annoying storyline, and you’ve got an instant Super Bowl drinking game 2026.

The Cris Collingsworth Drinking Game

You can consider this an extension of the Broadcast Narratives game. NBC is broadcasting Super Bowl 60, which means we’re getting Mike Tirico and Cris Collinsworth. Collinsworth is known for a few sayings and quotes that he leans on. It makes sense that you can craft a fun Super Bowl drinking game out of them.

Cris Collingsworth Drinking Game Rules

Sip when Collingsworth says:

  • “Here’s a guy…” to analyze a player.
  • “Now, you’re thinking….” when he discusses a player or coach’s thought process.
  • “Penetration” when talking about a defensive lineman breaks into the backfield.

2 Sips when Collingsworth says:

  • “Look at this” when introducing a replay, usually in slow motion.
  • “The Collingsworth slide”, which isn’t a saying, but it’s when Collinsworth slides into the camera frame, usually to start the broadcast.

Shot/Finish when:

  • “Take a shot” when a team tries a deep pass.
  • Any reference to Patrick Mahomes, who isn’t even playing in Super Bowl 60, but Collingsworth tends to work him into every broadcast.
  • Any reference to the Super Bowl 60 MVP odds.

6) Team-Specific Game Rules

Want your party split into sides? This version adds competitive energy without making anyone do math. Some of these are also props that you’ll find at top Super Bowl betting sites.

Setup

Divide into two teams: Seattle fans vs. New England fans.

Team-Specific Rules

If your team scores:

  • The other team takes 2 sips

If your team gets a turnover:

  • The other team takes 3 sips

If your team commits a penalty on 3rd down:

  • Your team takes 2 sips

If your team wins a challenge:

  • The other team takes 1 sip
  • If you lose the challenge, your team takes 2 sips

Optional “mercy rule”: If one side is getting demolished, switch to “sip only” mode at halftime.

7) The One Drive, One Rule Draft

This is a great choice if your group wants variety and fewer repeat triggers.

How it Works

Before each drive, someone “drafts” one rule from a list. That rule applies only for that drive.

Drive Rule Options

  • Sip if there’s a completed pass over 15 yards
  • Sip if the run goes for 8+ yards
  • 2 sips if there’s a sack
  • 2 sips if a timeout is called
  • Shot if the drive ends in a touchdown
  • Finish if the drive ends in a turnover

Pro move: Let the person who drafted the rule choose who drinks when it hits.
