For the big family

Is football a family affair? Invite your friends, family, and their friends and family to watch the big game at your place. An extra-large sectional, coffee table, and entertainment area is ideal for large gatherings - lots of space for standing, sitting, and cheering.

For the special-occasions-only fan

Not big on TV but want to enjoy game day? Install a small contemporary barn door that can slide over the TV while it's not in use. Simply push the doors to the side when you're ready to root for your favorite team.
