It’s fantasy draft time! Be sure your draft strategy is ready and that you have everything you need to make your draft a success. Take lots of pictures and video, and “broadcast” them on your party website. Share your comments and opinions in the blogs. Spread the word by posting to Twitter, Facebook, YouTube. Use the hashtag #espndraftparty.
Thanks for being a host of an ESPN Fantasy Football Draft Party.

Thank you House Party! We had a blast at the party. My sons got with the boys on their High School football team and parents and sons made their own league. The gifts were great!

Thanks to ESPN for the draft supplies. We had 8 people show up to draft, no clue where the other 2 were, so their teams were auto-picked by the rest of us. Everybody had a GREAT time, and loved the stuff. The draft magazines came in handy also. All in all, a great time... lasted about 4 hours. Thanks again

A big thank you to ESPN for the draft kit. We had a blast and all the supplies to have a kicking party. We ended up with 14 teams this year in our league, because people heard about the free stuff. Magazines and cheet sheets were helpfull to the football novices like myself.
Thanks again!

We had 38 people at our party! Children included! Everyone had a blast and enjoyed the goodies from ESPN! Our team is husband and wives against each other. It was fun to hear the men all business while the women picked names that sounded good! We threw in a fun surprise of our own. We made coupon booklets for the couples. Each week the winner is treated to a fun prize.....i.e. gift, or the loser taking out the trash, or cleaning the "locker room." We also are going to have an end of the season party at our house for the overall winner! Fun was had by all! Thanks ESPN for picking us. Hopefully we can do it again next year!

All that attended this evening loved the poster, made things go so smoothly. Suggestions: pads of paper to keep track of your own teams, pens to write it all down with, and bigger poster with bigger stickers so all could read from seats on who was taken and available. Other then that, everything went smoothly. Can't wait for the season to start. I can only hope I'll be considered for this again next year. Thanks ESPN

The party was pretty fun considering only 2 people showed up and nobody got online but me to do the draft. They had a Tim Mcgraw concert the night before and everybody went to it.

The party was great. Not as many people showed, but that didn't matter. We had a blast! The food was awesome (as usual!) and the plates, cups and napkins really came in handy. They made cleanup quick and easy! Thanks to HouseParty and ESPN for all the great stuff! Thanks to Cheez-it, too, for throwing in the snacks! Great Surprise! Fantasy Football couldn't get any better than this! Go Team!

I've used several FFL sites as well and have to say the ESPN one is quite easy to use and navigate. I am having some new users have a difficult time registering though, it just keeps returning them to the reg screen over and over... hope this is resolved by draft time!

I couldn't disagree more. I think ESPN's site is the most user-friendly site out there. My league couldn't be happier about the website and this party. My only question is... who do I take 4th overall?

Ok, I have to admit that the website to create/ join a league was very difficult and hard for my guests to understand. Only a few were able to actually register because even though I had created a "public" team it somehow went "private" and I couldn't figure out how to add my guests. This was horrible. 1st piece of advice for ESPN: Please make it a little easier to use.
