Elena Delle Donne’s March Madness® next-level watch party tips:
Tip #1: Hang cool lights. Take your space to the next level by stringing some lights and dialing up the vibes. Trust Elena; you’ll thank her when the sun goes down.
Tip #2: Get comfy. Just because you’re outside doesn’t mean you can’t get snuggly. Bring out some blankets and pillows, and invite all your pets so you can stay cozy while watching the games.
Tip #3: Hang a hoop. You’re going to need to get in some shots between plays to relieve all that game stress.
Tip #4: Charcuterie! Nothing brings rivals together like their love of meat and cheese—so bust out the board and bring on the flavor because no viewing party is complete without your favorite snacks.
Tip #5: Forget your indoor voice. Real fans don’t hold back when cheering their team on. Head outside to enjoy the games, cheer loudly and don’t forget the laptop or tablet so your friends can join the party.
