Football season is here – even if the black and yellow might have missed the memo. Not to fear, no fair-weathered fans here. With or without Bell on the field, AB drama and Ben sporting an injury (as usual), we are still ready to rock each week in our yinzer favorites. Whether it’s at the game, at home or watching the game in a local bar (or the NFL app on school nights, ahem), we still go all out – in food, fun and football gear. Check out what we’re gearing up for today:

Jersey Mikes

As much as we love to tailgate, sometimes it’s just more fun to watch the game n’ at. While I am a big fan of tailgate food and prep, sometimes we just don’t feel like cooking (or maybe we’re just a little too hungover?). So what’s better than a catering order ready to pick up? Being that the stadium is in New Jersey, it’s easier to pick up your food fresh on the way – and what’s more local than Jersey Mike’s? Whether in the parking lot or your living room, these catering boxes come with 10 subs each and are perfect to order online (and will even be ready within an hour!) to pick up on your way to the game.  Only have a couple friends coming for the game? Check out their personal lunch boxes for game day catering. They come with the original Jersey-style subs such as the Jersey Shore’s Favorite and The Original Italian, or you can customize them for healthier wraps (or even go carb-free with a tub). Little yinzer fans coming to the tailgate? They even have kids’ size boxes.

Where to get them: JerseyMikes.com, pricing varies

FanHeads Football Helmets

 

Every season we look for a fun new addition to our black and yellow collection. And this year, these FanHeads paper helmets were the pick. How fun are these? They’re durable and weather resistant (and only $9.99) so they’re the perfect accessory for a tailgate that will be Instagram-worthy and you won’t feel bad leaving behind. These wearable football helmets adjust to four different sizes – S, M, L and XL – and as Maximo-tested, fit all sizes (at least at our party!).

Where to get them: Fanheads.com, $9.99
