Football has wings and nachos. Baseball has hotdogs and Cracker Jacks. But basketball? It’s not really associated with any particular food. Not only that, but the Denver Nuggets have never been to an NBA Championship, so Colorado doesn’t really have any game-watching traditions.

To help, we’ve come up with a few suggestions for what to eat at home if you are having a watch party — and what to have on the road if you’re planning to hit a restaurant or bar for the games. By the way, the first game is at 6:30 p.m. today, June 1. See the rest of the schedule here.

At home

Blue and yellow tortilla chips

Celebrating at home? At a minimum, you’re going to need chicken nuggets and some Nuggets-themed blue and yellow tortilla chips. Both chip colors can be found at any grocery store, but if you want to get into the hyper-local Denver spirit, pick some up at Pochito’s Tortilla Factory, 4431 Tejon St., which made some special edition Denver Nuggets chips. While you’re at it, grab a dozen tamales and some salsa to-go from Pochito’s, one of our favorite spots.

Eastern European specialties

European Gusto, at 4015 Arkansas Ave. in Denver, is a food importer and distributor that sells meats, cheese, cookies, crackers and other hard-to-find specialties from the Balkan nations — including Serbia, home to Nikola Jokic, and Slovenia, home to Vlatko Čančar.
