Make a Game Plan for Super Bowl LIX and Commit to Sober Driving
Super Bowl LIX is right around the corner, taking place on Sunday, February 9, 2025. Whether you’re hosting a party or cheering on your favorite team at a friend’s house, it’s crucial to plan ahead for a safe celebration.
The U.S. Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and the Airport Corridor Transportation Association (ACTA) are teaming up to remind everyone: Fans Don’t Let Fans Drive Drunk. Drunk driving is 100% preventable, yet its consequences can be devastating. From severe injuries to lives lost, the risks of driving under the influence are far too great.
Before the big game kicks off, make a winning play to ensure everyone gets home safely. Here’s how you can do your part:
For Hosts
- Stock Up on Snacks and Mocktails: Offer a variety of non-alcoholic beverages and plenty of food to keep guests hydrated and satisfied.
- Be Responsible: Never serve alcohol to minors or over-serve guests who are drinking.
For Designated Drivers
- Step Up to the Plate: Commit to staying sober for the evening to ensure everyone gets home safely.
- Be a Team Player: If someone who’s been drinking tries to drive, take their keys and assist them in finding another way home.
For Partygoers
- Pace Yourself: Enjoy the night responsibly by eating food, drinking water, and alternating alcoholic beverages with non-alcoholic options.
- Plan Ahead: Arrange for a sober driver or rideshare before the festivities begin.
Super Bowl Sunday should be about great plays and good times—not tragedy. By planning ahead and making responsible choices, you can ensure everyone makes it home safely after the game.
Remember: Fans Don’t Let Fans Drive Drunk. Let’s work together to make Super Bowl LIX a fun and safe celebration for all!
