11 Things To Do Now That Football Season Is Officially Over

Super Bowl 50 has come and gone. We watched first hand how "defense wins championships," and got to celebrate with Peyton Manning on his well-deserved win (Sorry, Cam). And we got to gorge ourselves on a gross amount of food while doing it. However, we now have to face the fact that football season is officially over. Even though we've had a teaser of what life is like without Sunday afternoon games, we are facing a long stretch of over 200 days until the next NFL game and only slightly fewer days until the first college game. (Guys, that's like forever). Instead of laying in bed wondering what to do all day on Sundays until that next season starts, I've compiled a list to help you get going.

1. Go throw a football with your friends (yes, outside).

2. Perfect that tailgating dip that you've been meaning to get to.

3. Hunt for your favorite team's apparel to stock up for when they're playing again.

4. Go to a sports bar and loudly complain that there is no football on.


5. Re-watch old games.

6. Argue with your friends about how the next season will go.

7. Convince yourself this is [your team]'s year.

8. Take a tour of the Football Hall of Fame.

9. Get way too into your favorite college team's spring game.

10. DIY cornhole in your favorite team's colors.

11. Lay in bed and constantly text your friends asking if they have any ideas about what to do.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
