When the novelty of holding a kegger begins to wear off, spruce up the
celebration by throwing a themed party. Here are nine innovative
ideas for some PRETTY CRAZY parties.
Ugly Sweater Party
Everyone has a horrible sweater stuffed in the back of their dresser
draw. We’ve all gotten one from our great aunt or grandma.
Ask your guests to attend the party in their worst looking winter wear.
The Seven Deadly Sins
Place one type of liquor in seven different places throughout the
house. Guests will move from room to room and take shots.
If they throw up, no more shots for them. Give them a glass of
water.
Clever Custom T-Shirt Party
Grab a white t-shirt and a Sharpie and develop your own
faux-Abercrombie slogan. Make it blunt (“I’m drunk”), make it
political (“Come Back, Bill. We Forgive You!”), or just make it
honest (“I lie to girls”).
The Haiku Hoedown
There’s nothing like combining a little culture with class. Every
partygoer should prepare a Haiku about the host and wear a cowboy
hat. Before guests can buy a cup for the keg, the guests must
recite their haikus to the host.
Dairy and Barley
Guests won’t be allowed to refill their cup until they drink a glass of
milk. With so much dairy mixing with alcohol, it may be a good
idea to host this party outdoors.
Sweet Jane
Invite your guests to dress up as their favorite character from
Charlotte Bronte’s classic novel Jane Eyre. Maybe Blanche Ingram
will score with Edward Rochester. Maybe St. John Rivers will get
Jane Eyre after all. Who knows?
The College Newspaper Accessory Party
Guests are encouraged to use the latest copy of your college’s
newspaper to tailor an accessory. Perhaps girls will assemble a
front-page paper purse. Perhaps guys will manufacture a sports
page paper hat.
Atomic Saucer Party
Ask your guests to bring one horrible CD. It could be their
Hanson Christmas CD or maybe even that TLC comeback album. Either
way, the host will play one track on each CD. After every song,
throw the disc in the microwave and watch it ignite into sparks.
The Confederate/Union Party
Every guest dresses up like their favorite Civil War general.
Guests from the Union side may help themselves to Milwaukee’s
Best. Guests from the Confederate side may help themselves to
Southern Comfort. I realize it’s not fair to give the
Confederates better booze but, if they can’t have it their way
following the war, they should at least have bourbon.
