Football season is all about friends, family, great food, and unforgettable moments.
But nothing ruins game day faster than an entertainment system that just can’t keep up.
Every year, we help Arizona homeowners upgrade their homes before kickoff. Surprisingly, we see the same problems over and over again.
The good news? Every one of these issues can be fixed before the season starts.
Let’s take a look at the five biggest game-day mistakesβand how to avoid them.
1. Your TV Is Too Small
A small TV might have worked years ago, but today’s broadcasts deserve a bigger screen.
If everyone has to lean forward to see a replay, it’s probably time for an upgrade.
Many homeowners are surprised by how much larger TVs have become without overwhelming a room.
Popular sizes include:
- 75-inch TVs
- 85-inch TVs
- 98-inch TVs
Choosing the right size depends on your seating distance and room layout.
A larger screen makes every touchdown, replay, and highlight easier to enjoy.
2. Your TV Isn’t Mounted Properly
Even a great TV won’t look its best if it’s mounted too high or too low.
We’ve seen TVs installed:
- Above eye level
- Crooked on the wall
- With visible wires hanging below
- On mounts that don’t fit the TV
Professional TV mounting improves both the appearance of your room and your viewing experience.
Hidden wires and the correct viewing height create a setup that looks clean and feels comfortable during long games.
3. Your Sound Doesn’t Match the Picture
A huge TV paired with weak audio is one of the biggest mistakes homeowners make.
Football isn’t just about watching the game.
It’s about hearing:
- The crowd roar
- The announcers
- Big hits
- Every touchdown celebration
Whether it’s a soundbar or a full surround sound system, quality audio completely changes the experience.
4. Your WiFi Can’t Handle Game Day
More football fans stream games than ever before.
If your internet buffers during a crucial play, the problem may not be your internet speed.
It could be your WiFi.
Common signs include:
- Frozen video
- Slow streaming
- Dropped connections
- Poor backyard coverage
A professionally designed WiFi system provides reliable coverage throughout your home so everyone can stream, browse, and stay connected.
5. You Forgot About the Backyard
Arizona football season often means beautiful weather.
Instead of crowding everyone inside, why not extend the party outdoors?
Popular backyard upgrades include:
- Outdoor TVs
- Weather-resistant speakers
- Strong outdoor WiFi
- Sonos outdoor audio
Watching football on the patio has become one of our customers’ favorite ways to enjoy game day.
β Quick Game Day Checklist
Before the first NFL game, ask yourself:
- Is your TV the right size?
- Is it mounted at the correct height?
- Does your sound system fill the room?
- Can your WiFi stream without buffering?
- Is your patio ready for guests?
- Are your cables hidden for a clean look?
If you answered “No” to any of these questions, now is the perfect time to make an upgrade.
