Super Bowl Sunday is this Sunday, Feb. 3! Did you know that  90 million toilets will be flushed during the halftime?

And as the nachos, bean dip and beverages abound, the day has historically become one of the busiest days for plumbers. In fact, every year, one-in-five Americans battles a clogged toilet, often times during halftime.

Some tips for keeping things flowing smoothly on Super Bowl Sunday:

  • Use single-ply toilet paper.
  • Keep a trash bin in the bathroom and tell guests not to flush paper towels or napkins.
  • Remove small items near the bowl that could fall in and cause a clog.
  • And obviously, keep your head out of it

So enjoy the Super Bowl this Sunday! Root for the 49ers or the Ravens and keep the plunger handy!
