El Paso Times

Where to get buffalo wing deals for your Super Bowl party

- Maria Cortes Gonzalez

El Paso Super Bowl fans are gearing up for the finale of the football season Sunday, Feb. 11.

They already know who will be playing, the San Francisco 49ers will be playing the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LVIII.

But do El Pasoans know what they will be serving? The party vibe and food are just as important or more than the players on TV.

Despite wing prices being higher heading into the Super Bowl, 1.45 billion wings and drumsticks are expected to be eaten this weekend, according to the National Chicken Council.

Football fans can visit some of their favorite bars for game-watching, like Headquarte­rs Taphouse, located at 2910 Tularosa Ave. and enjoy drink specials. There will be $20 Mimosa Towers and $10 champagne bottles.

Or fans might be more inclined to invite close friends and family over and order some football watching favorites. Here are some ideas to get your staples for your watch party.

The following deals are available on Sunday unless otherwise noted at participat­ing locations. Some require an app and most are while supplies last. Offers can vary by franchise.
