Can't go wrong with a bowl of chips. Maybe turn the subtitles on too.

Popcorn of course. I make it just like the movie theatres.
Sports at home, nachos. Sports in person, peanuts or garlic fries. Sports at bar, tavern pizza. Movies at home, popcorn. Movies in theater, beans also popcorn and maybe raisinettes.
It totally depends on what I'm watching and my mood. I'm not a big snacker, so I usually make a meal for gamedays. My favorite superstition is "Eat Your Enemy", so what I make depends on the opponent. Typical options are Chicago style hot dogs, Minnesota hot dishes, poutine when the Preds play the Habs, St Louis style ribs, smothered burritos, etc.
It's just a silly excuse to look into regional favorites and learn new dishes. Plus in my reptile brain my efforts are helping the team, which is totally a possibility..... Right?
My favorites:
- dark chocolate
- spicy chicharrones
- spicy chips
- ice cream
- ... a full blown dinner in bed with GF with the very convenient trays we have
Sports games is peanuts. Movies in the theater is whatever I can sneak in. Movies at home is a burrito dinner from that place down the street I can walk to.
Currently it's peanut puffs, which is basically puffed maize flour with peanut coating. Although, mainly because the local shop has a brand, which gets the peanut flavor perfectly.

On second place is lentil chips. I prefer them to potato chips, because they actually fill you up after a while. I really hate how you can shove multiple bags of potato chips into your face and hardly notice it.
Stress-drinking beer while yelling at the tv seems to have become my go-to.
I'm a chip guy for sure. The Flaming Hot Cool Ranch Doritos are fucking good send right now, the flavor combo just slaps to all hell. Best chip
Peanuts in a spice coating :3 or wafers with vanilla cream if Im feeling like something sweet
I used to have chips, sometimes with a dip, and ginger ale to wash it down. Now I practice intermittent fasting and stop eating at 6pm so I sadly don’t eat anything anymore while watching.
this going to sound dumb, but my local Regal has these godawful greasy pissas, that just hit the absolute spot while watching a new bluckbuster
Pork rinds.
Pizza. There is nothing better than sitting on the couch eating pizza watching UFC and shitting on the heavyweights for being unathletic blobs.
Actually, I am from jostedalsbren in Norway, and when I watch Brimmeskuele, I usually have some Knäckebrot with raw primasjala.
