To quote the one and only Chris Harrison, this is the most dramatic season of the Bachelor, with the most controversial bachelor in Bachelor nation history. With that being said, Bachelor fans, get ready for a season full of drama, drama, and more drama! In order to fully enjoy watching Nick Viall and his journey to find love, it is essential to make the most of your Monday nights and have a Bachelor viewing party. Here is some ways to make your viewing experience the best it can be!
Grab all your friends
Watching the Bachelor is DEFINITELY better when you watch with friends. Together, you can fully react to those OMG moments and make commentary regarding some of those WTF remarks made by some of the contestants.
Wear a Bachelor-themed tee
While watching with your BFFs, make sure you are rocking a Bachelor-themed tee. These shirts, which are made perfect for our Monday night watch parties, are not only super cute but have also been seen on some past Bachelor contestants, like JoJo Fletcher (Available on Betches.com and ClothingByOwl.com).
Drink Bachelor wine
This stuff is seriously made for bachelor watching purposes. The collection features The Fantasy Suite, One on One, and The Final Rosè. You can buy it here.
Join a Bachelor bracket
What better way to fuel the competition of the show than to compete with your friends to see which contestant will make it far and get the final rose? You can easily create bracket for you and your friends on TheBachelorBracket.com, or, thanks to the help from ESPN, participate in The Bachelor Fantasy League. See, even those who are not sports fans can have fun with brackets and fantasy leagues.
Make snacks
Make some yummy snacks to eat while you watch! You can go for popcorn, which is a classic, or maybe make something sweet for your friends to enjoy, like chocolate covered fruit, cookies or brownies, or maybe even "rose" themed treats.
Create cheat sheets to keep track of the contestants
Let's face it, there are a lot of girls, especially during the early rounds. With so many contestants, it can get very hard to keep track of who is who. Unless they made obnoxious statements or actions on the first night (i.e. Corinne telling the world that she is a 24 year old with a nanny and Alexis showing up in a dolphin/shark costume), it is likely that you forgot who all of the girls are. To make life a little easier, create cheat sheets so you and your friends are able to remember who is who.
No matter what you do to watch The Bachelor, I wish you luck in your brackets, and happy watching!
And to Nick Viall, I wish you success on this journey to find love, and hopefully, this will be your last season on the show. Fourth times the charm, right?
