Preseason is over and football season is officially on! This Sunday the Cowboys travel to New York to play the New York Jets. Kickoff is at 7:20pm (CST), and the game airs live on NBC. If you -- like us -- plan to celebrate the first Cowboys game of the season with a party, here are a few things you’ll want to consider.

Show your spirit. Nothing says game day like a room full of Cowboys gear. If you don’t have your Romo jersey, better get to one of the numerous stores selling Cowboy apparel before the game starts! Granted, it’s not the Superbowl, but you can still decorate for game day with blue, silver and white plates, cups and plastic utensils. Check out your neighborhood dollar store or Big Lots to save cash on game day décor. 

Make a game of it. Whether you’re a Fantasy Football player or not, offering up a friendly little wager on the game’s outcome will keep your football buddies entertained during commercials. Take bets on the final score, total yardage for the Cowboys, etc. and offer up a sweet treat as a prize to the winner.

Nothing says football season like food. You can’t have a good football party without good food. Save yourself a trip to the store for the mundane chips and salsa or veggies and dip snacks like the rest of Dallas. Check out our Take Away Chef menu for filling (and delicious) casseroles, chicken dishes, homemade lasagna, veggies and desserts. We promise our homemade meals won’t disappoint your big eaters. Call ahead and we’ll have your meals prepared for you and bring them right out to your car when you come pick them up! Best of all, our Take Away Chef meals are easy, casual and affordable.
