This Sunday the Kansas City Chiefs and Tampa Bay Buccaneers will meet in Super Bowl LV. Whether you’re watching for the football, the halftime show, the commercials, or just looking forward to enjoying the food and drinks, a staple of almost every Super Bowl celebration is a squares pool. Squares pools make it easy for even the most casual fans to get a little action on the big game. The rules are simple — someone prints out a 10×10 grid of 100 squares, which can be bought for a set amount — $2, $5, $10, or whatever fits the size and gambling interest of those participating. Once every square has been purchased, numbers between 0-9 are drawn on both axes so that each square corresponds to a unique combination. At the end of each half, or in some cases, the end of each quarter, the second digit of each team’s score is used to identify the winning square — if the Chiefs lead the Buccaneers 17-13 at halftime, the square that had Chiefs 7/Bucs 3 would cash the halftime prize.
