How to play Super Bowl Squares
The game is played on a 10×10 grid, with the Kansas City Chiefs (AFC champions) on one side and the Philadelphia Eagles (NFC champions) on the other. Each participant purchases a square at a fixed price set by the player (for example, $5). You can purchase as many squares as you like.
When all of the squares have been sold or there are no more players, each player takes turns drawing a number from 0 to 9 and assigning it to the top and side of the grid. Players can see the numbers their grid corresponds to, and the game can begin with the kickoff.
