If you have plans to host a Super Bowl party, you may need to deal with trash talking guests, but you don't have to deal with bags of trash from the party. Do your part by hosting a greener party, no matter what colors your team sports.
THE BEER: You'll probably be stocking up on most of your party supplies at the grocery store. If beer is on your list, consider trying a few varieties of organic or locally brewed beers.
If you're having a large crowd, renting a keg is both more economical and less wasteful. A full-size keg holds the equivalent of 165 12-ounce containers of beer and can be refilled and used over and over again.
For individually packaged beverages of all kinds, the greener choices are ones packaged in aluminum cans. Aluminum is the most valuable and cost-effective material that we recycle.
Plus, aluminum can be recycled and back on the store shelves as new product in a matter of weeks.
OTHER BEVERAGES: When serving water, the best choice is to provide a pitcher of ice water and reusable glasses for your guests. If bottled water is a must, buy bottles made with less plastic and make sure they get recycled.
PLATES, UTENSILS: Reusable dinnerware and utensils are the least wasteful means of throwing a party, but it's not always practical. When shopping for disposable products like napkins and paper towels, look for ones made from recycled paper.

LOL!
That’s the spirit. :)
One of the most difficult tasks in college was drinking down the keg. That is getting up Sunday morning and being faced with drinking up the beer left in the keg from Saturday night

Here’s some more advice, MS. Bennett...how about you mind your own damn business?
Maybe people should 'recycle' their plastic bottles on the side of the road just to p*ss you off, MS. Bennett...
Does that mean you are a robot???????
organic cotton blouse?
flax blazer?
not sure about the hair color tho - it looks a bit fake to me, but maybe “natural” henna?
And watch the game by candlelight?
No, use whale oil lanterns. Harvested from genuine organic free range wild caught certified antibiotic and hormone free whales.
Lamh Foistenach Abu!
>Does ANYBODY in the country really read and believe this happy horse sh!t? <
Prius-driving, faggot pussies?
We’re going to have a Green & Gold party. GO PACK GO.
“No, use whale oil lanterns. Harvested from genuine organic free range wild caught certified antibiotic and hormone free whales”
I would consider that, but we are fresh out of whales in the hills of East Tennessee. Wonder if I could use sheep? I am in the South you know? :)
I love organic meat and I raise most of my own organic veggies, and one of my favorite hard ciders is organic. That said, any and all “reduce and reuse” actions on my part are purely for financial purposes.
If these guys want to party like it’s 1599 they can be my guest. But that is the thing: They want their cake and want to eat it too. If they really care about mother Earth, then they should truely live like it’s 1599 and not have a party. Or paper plates (even recycled ones), or TV’s, or even homes that aren’t made of mud.
The only green I want at my Super Bowl party is the guacamole.
