Party Décor

Cannabis and football can co-exist in harmony at the next Cannabis football party you host! Decorating for a cannabis-themed soiree has never been easier with all the cannabis football party décor ideas available. Unleash your creativity to generate a unique cannabis twist on the classic game of football – set the tone by adorning walls with green and gold streamers and balloons, or hang up banners to add a touch of sophistication. For added fun, show your team spirit by hanging up jerseys or helmets of your favorite team. Work in some fan gear accessories such as rally towels, pre-filled with snacks. Whatever cannabis football party decorating style you choose, you can make an impact bycelebrating cannabis style!

Plan Cannabis-Themed Party Games

Of course, your guests are there to watch the big game (and, if you’re like me, the ads) – but why not make it even more fun by adding some football-themed games like charades or cornhole?

A great one to start with is a cannabis inspired game of charades – split into two teams, each team taking turns to guess what their teammate is acting out. You can make it cannabis themed by using buzzwords like ‘blaze’, ‘vape’ or ‘bud’. Make it even more fun by having your guests lead up chants or come up with unique scenes for others to act out. If that’s not your thing, why not set up cornhole outside? Arrange the boards in the shape of a football field and let guests take turns throwing bean bags from one end zone to another as they build their camaraderie over friendly competition! Either way, it’s sure to be a hilarious time!
