1. Cheer for charity.

Have fun watching the game with friends and family while supporting a good cause—and take a tax deduction, too. Here’s what to do:

Choose a charity or cause you love.

Provide guests with suggested donations. For example, if you want to raise $500, recommend each person donate $25.

Ask your local liquor store if it would donate a little free product in exchange for free promotion at your event. More often than not, the business is willing.

Next: 2. Get sponsored.

Turf grasses

Ground cover

Fake grass

And, yes, lawn paint!
