So the NFL sent us a letter saying we couldn’t use their names or likenesses to promote Little Pub’s football party platters. Apologies all around and we shan’t do that again.

But that got us thinking about a report we saw on how much actual football action you see during a typical broadcast. The numbers vary, but it’s generally between 15 and 20 minutes of live action, with 18 viewed as the average. So, it turns out you’re just watching commercials for two and a half hours while waiting to see 44 seconds of Taylor Swift celebrating touchdowns in a luxury box.

So, forget the football part. We don’t want to get sued and we’ve moved on. But we haven’t moved far, and whether you’re looking forward to spying on Taylor Swift, wondering if you should be offended during the halftime show, or just watching a bunch of commercials broadcast on CBS on Sunday, February 11^th at 6:30 PM EST, one thing is for sure: you will need snacks for your Swift Spying/Halftime Show/TV Commercial watching party.

Check out the TV Party* options on our the Little Pub Party Platters ordering site and get snacks for whatever you watch that day. And remember, Little Pub party platters work great for Grammy, Emmy, and Oscar parties too.* 

*Grammy, Emmy, and Oscar are employees of Little Pub. Any inference to awards shows is merely coincidental and not expressly implied.

Join us Monday, January 1 at 3 PM (high tide) in Stratford for the 4th annual Little Pub Polar Plunge for Make-A-Wish CT. We’ll have all sorts of fun stuff there, representatives from Make-A-Wish CT, and you’ll be able to knock off those “try new things/healthy habits” resolutions because it turns out polar plunging is good for you.

Beyond being a popular health trend among athletes and celebrities, cold plunging enthusiasts claim the practice has numerous benefits for your body and mind. From boosting mood to enhancing immune function, this age-old practice is re-emerging as a modern wellness ritual.

Cold plunging involves immersing your body in water temperatures of 59 degrees or below, triggering a cascade of physiological responses. Here are some key benefits backed by science:

Boosts Mood & Resilience: Many enthusiasts report heightened mood and increased resilience.

Enhances Post-Workout Recovery: May reduce muscle soreness, particularly after intense physical activities.

Promotes Brown Fat Activity: Unlike white fat, brown adipose tissue (BAT) burns calories and may protect your heart.

Supports Immune Function: Cold exposure could lead to fewer sick days, as seen in some studies.
