Say “which one is the quarter back?” Make sure they can hear the space between “quarter” and “back”.
My church actually cancels its night service to throw a Superbowl party… And yet the majority of people there don’t really know anything about football other than the names of the teams playing. So I think you’d be okay.
You can fake it for fun, but don’t feel like you have to. Nobody’s ever cornered me, and all I know about football is the rules (which you can look up online).
This is definitely the way to go. And while everyone is glued to the tube, you two can hog the pizza and chips-n-dip.
Fuck faking it.
Just be honest if someone asks you. Don’t know, don’t care etc. I’m here for the social aspect and food. You have a risk of being exposed otherwise.
Most guys understand not every guy is into sports and the ones that razz you about with statements like “what kind of guy isn’t into football ?”
Just respond with “The homo kind” and blow him a kiss. That’s what I did at a Grey Cup party the room broke out into laughter.
Be sure to bring this cake
