What Are Super Bowl Squares?

Super Bowl squares is the most popular way to add excitement to the big game. A 10x10 grid creates 100 squares, each representing a unique combination of score digits for both teams. Participants claim squares before kickoff, numbers are randomly assigned, and winners are determined at the end of each quarter based on the last digit of each team's score.

For example, if the score at halftime is Chiefs 17, Eagles 14, you would look for the square at column 7 and row 4. Whoever claimed that square wins the halftime round. It is simple enough for anyone to understand, yet creates nail-biting excitement on every scoring play.

The game has a long history dating back decades and has become a staple at Super Bowl watch parties across the country. For the full rules, visit our How to Play page.

Why Super Bowl squares are perfect for parties

Even guests who do not follow football get invested. Every score change could make someone a winner, keeping the whole room engaged from kickoff to the final whistle. Running an office party? See our office game day guide.

4

Super Bowl Squares Tips

Start Early

Share your grid at least a week before the game. This gives everyone time to claim their squares and builds anticipation.

Cast to TV

Display your squares grid on the TV during the party. Everyone can watch the scores update and see winners announced in real-time.

Randomize After Filling

Do not assign numbers until all squares are claimed. This keeps it fair and prevents people from gaming the system. For more on keeping things smooth, read our etiquette guide.

Consider Overtime Rules

Choose "With Overtime" format if you want a 5th winner for the final score separate from Q4. Standard mode uses final score for the last winner. Our overtime guide explains both formats.

Super Bowl Squares FAQ

When should I create my Super Bowl squares game?

Create it anytime, even before the teams are set. Your game will automatically update with the final teams, their colors, and the official kickoff time once they are determined. No need to wait or make changes yourself.

What if teams are not finalized yet?

No problem. Create your game now and start collecting squares. Once the Conference Championships are over, we automatically pull in the official matchup, team colors, and game details from the NFL. Your grid stays exactly as your players claimed it.

How many winners are there?

Standard format has 4 winners: Q1, Halftime, Q3, and Final. If you choose "With Overtime" format, there are 5 potential winners (Q4 end-of-regulation + Final if the game goes to OT).

Can people claim multiple squares?

Yes. Players can claim as many squares as you allow. Some groups let people take 2-5 squares each to fill the grid faster.

What if we do not fill all 100 squares?

That is fine. Unclaimed squares simply cannot win. Many groups run successful games with 50-75 squares filled.

Do I need to know football to play?

Not at all. Squares are 100% luck based. Numbers are assigned randomly, and winners are determined by the score. Read our guide on football squares for non-sports fans for more.

Do I need to enter scores manually?

No. When you select the Super Bowl game, scores update automatically throughout the game. Winners are highlighted instantly at the end of each quarter.

Is this really free?

Yes, 100% free. No premium features, no hidden fees, no catch.
