Your Football Viewing Experience Is Incomplete Without This
This article was produced in partnership with DoorDash
For sports lovers across America, we've reached the most wonderful time of year: football season. Couches get broken in over back to back weekends of gridiron glory. You assume the uniform of a super-fan, donning jerseys, hats, and tees as if it were royal regalia. Your Saturdays and Sundays are spent with family and friends (some turned rivals) watching your favorite teams and adversaries duke it out.
If you prefer your game day viewing experience to be in the comfort of home, there's no question where you'll be. The only thing you need to consider is what you're ordering and where to get it.
The answer is simple: DoorDash. Nobody wants to miss a game-changing touchdown or huge hit because they’re in the kitchen slinging pizzas or cooking hot wings in the air fryer.
DoorDash can solve your woes the same way it always has: By bringing game day grub right to your doorstep. But this season, DoorDash is going even deeper to be your MVP.

Timeout, Order In
And to make it even easier to place orders in the moment and get properly fed for a game, DoorDash recently unveiled its “Timeout, Order In” campaign, featuring interactive in-game ad spots that help football fans seamlessly order food and supplies (and unlock significant savings) in between plays. The spots will run all season long. All you have to do to find them is…keep watching football games.

Top Game Day Foods to Order While Watching Football
Pizza is the MVP of any party, and Americans devour it on game days. Pepperoni and cheese are the most popular toppings, but the Motor City Classic deep-dish style has crashed the top five of most-ordered pizzas. Mushrooms are the country’s most popular topping outside of pepperoni, but pineapples have taken the No. 2 spot and even moved up to No. 1 in the Midwest.
Of course no meal is complete without something to drink. The nation’s most popular food-and-drink combo on football weekends is the iconic beer and pizza duo. Rounding out the top three are fries and wine, then the underrated tandem of wings and seltzer.
