1. Seating…
Perhaps you’re suddenly stressing over not enough of space after you’ve invited the entire town, plus some! Try rearranging the furniture and repositioning the TV so that the maximum amount of viewers can enjoy the game in comfort. Perhaps add a couple of bean bag chairs that can be stored in the kids room afterwards.

Don’t put a TV in a spot where you really don’t want a crowd!
