Super Bowl Squares: How to Play Our Online Football Squares Game

Super Bowl Squares is one of the easiest ways to have action on the Kansas City Chiefs vs. San Francisco 49ers. This contest is a great way to entertain guests at your Super Bowl party. Read on for a walk-through on how Super Bowl squares work and how to create your own squares game.

You can know absolutely nothing about football or sign up for a top sports betting app, and still have some skin in the game. Better yet, leave your Super Bowl party with some cash in your pocket. The more squares you buy, the better your chance of winning.

Let’s examine how Super Bowl Squares pools work ahead of Sunday’s Big Game, a familiar matchup from Super Bowl 54 in 2020.

How Do Squares Work for the Super Bowl?

You probably know the basics: Each square on the board includes randomly generated numbers (0-9) for the Chiefs and 49ers in Super Bowl 58. The single digit corresponds to the final number in each team’s score.

The Chiefs defeated the Eagles 38-35 in last year’s Super Bowl. If you were fortunate enough to draw Chiefs 8 and Eagles 5, congratulations! That was the winning combination for the top prize in Super Bowl Squares pools.

Prizes are typically awarded at the end of the first quarter, halftime, the end of the third quarter, and at the game’s end. Since no thinking is involved here, it’s best to just hope for a combination involving 0, 3, 4, 6, and 7. These numbers are the most likely to hit and win you some money in 2023 Super Bowl Squares contests.

You may also print out a Super Bowl squares grid to have it handy at your Super Sunday party.

Sell each square for $1 apiece, for example. If there are 10 people at your Super Bowl party, maybe each person puts $10 into the pot and has 10 different number combinations. Each person gets one square for every $1 they put in — in most cases, the contestants get to choose their squares before the numbers are drawn.

After that, you only need to randomly draw numbers 0-9 for the Chiefs and 0-9 for the Niners. From there, everyone participating will know the numbers they need to hit.

What are the Different Payouts for Super Bowl Squares?

The key number to know here is 100. That’s the amount of squares on a Super Bowl Squares board, with 10 horizontal columns (49ers) and 10 vertical rows (Chiefs). You won’t necessarily need 100 people to play in your Super Bowl Squares contest. Most pools allow you to buy multiple squares.

Squares are all priced equally. The cost of an individual square determines your payouts. Let’s say each square costs $10. That means you’ll have $1,000 in total payouts. Prizes are awarded at the end of each quarter, so you could have four $250 payouts over the course of a game.

You can also weigh the importance of each quarter and offer progressively higher payouts. This could look something like this:

  • First quarter: $100
  • Second quarter: $175
  • Third quarter: $275
  • Final score: $450

But feel free to set up the payout structure however you see fit. As long as everyone knows the rules going in, there’s no issue with varying the payouts.
