Before, during and after the big game, sports fans crave food and beverages to make the game day complete. Hobby Lobby dropped the price for this tailgating accessory. For any host who wants to score big with guests, this football themed inflatable cooler is a guaranteed touchdown.
A great tailgate is just as much about the atmosphere as it is about the food and beverages. How guests are served sets the tone. Whether or not that team bowl is this season’s good luck charm remains to be seen. Spirited ambiance will always earn points with guests.
Currently, Hobby Lobby is selling the Inflatable Football Field Cooler for $16.19. The price is 40% off the original price of $26.99. The accessory includes a center cooler with goal posts and small, inflatable footballs.
The inflatable cooler is 28 inches high, 56 inches wide and 28 inches deep. Made from vinyl, it is easy to inflate. It does need a flat, secure surface that is large enough to support it while filled. The cooler is not intended to be used in a pool.
This football tailgate accessory will be the hit of any gathering.
Overall, the color scheme is generalized football related. Both Chiefs fans and Philly fans would happily welcome this tailgate item at their gatherings. Additionally, this item would be welcome at a college, NFL or even a high school tailgate.

As seen in the photos, the cooler can hold many cans and bottles. Since it is not insulated, the accessory may need ice to be replenished throughout its use. To keep the weigh in check, melted ice might need to be removed during use.
Additionally, party hosts should take care when filling the cooler. No one wants to puncture it. A deflated cooler is the ultimate party foul. If bottles are used, consider keeping them vertical to avoid caps from damaging the cooler.

Since the design includes field markers, they can be used as an easy visual to separate all the beverages in the cooler. For example, sodas could be closer to the end zone and the center could be filled with water bottles.
Although this football tailgate accessory seems to be designed for beverages, it could hold pre-made, pre-portioned food. For example, some grab and go fruit containers are an option. All items should be in containers, not just random food thrown inside the tub.
Lastly, this tailgate accessory does not necessarily have to be just a cooler. Some people might want to use it as party décor, display some swag or however they choose. It is a fun idea that could be the talk of any gathering.
