Insurance and the Super Bowl

February 1st, 2019 :: Martinson Agency LLC :: Chaska, MN

Hosting a Super Bowl Party can feel like trying to avoid a pass rush. Between your passionate friends and a few cocktails, things can go wrong at any moment. Here are a few tips to ensure a safe and enjoyable Super Bowl party

Monitor Your Guests Alcohol Consumption:

The most dangerous place to be on Super Bowl Sunday may not be on the field in Atlanta; it will likely be on the roads after the big game has ended. Drunken driving increases on Super Sunday. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration 43% of all traffic fatalities on Super Bowl Sunday were caused by drunk driving; compared to an average of only 31% the rest of the year. Keep an eye out for guests who may be impaired and make sure they do not get behind the wheel.

Grill Safety:

According to the Hearth, Patio & Barbecue Association one in four grill owners will use their grill for the big game. Be sure to keep an eye on it! It can be easy to get distracted with a large number friends and family over but paying attention to the grill can help prevent disaster.

Monitor Pet Stress:

Dogs can be sensitive to crowds of people and loud noises. A stressed out dog can be more likely to bite. If your dog seems anxious it is a good idea to keep him away from guests altogether.

Be sure to follow these tips for a safe and enjoyable Super Bowl Party. Do not open you and your family up to a liability claim just because you are hosting a get together. Please contact Martinson Agency in Chaska, MN with any home insurance or liability questions that you may have!|
