Good spring break spots for us students under 21?
- Thread starter Frntrow4life
- Start date
I realize you're joking, but 4 buddies and I went up to Winnipeg our sophomore year (spring '05) because my cousin lived up there and we were all underage, the drinking age was 18 and weed is decriminalized.
We spent 5 days just raising hell. It was cold outside and all that, but it was an absolute blast and waaaaaaaay cheaper than Mexico or Florida.
Look into Panama City, FL. My son plays on the club baseball team from another univerty and they head down to Florida for spring break. They finished with several days in Panama City, and he said that is all he could handle because it was not-stop drinking. Most of the team is upper classmen but he was a freshmen the first year he went and he had no problem getting drinks (not sure if I should be proud of that or not as his father, but I realize college student will be college student. I was so what can I say)

My thesis should be done and uploaded by then. By that point, I'm almost on cruise control.
Or remote control! March Madness, baby!!!
Yeah I had a buddy go up to Canada. I can't remember where but he went up there with a group to ski for a few days. He said they also rented snowmobiles one day and then another day they had a dog sled tour which he said was pretty fun.

We didn't do anything that fun. We just got legally drunk and high, watched Trailer Park Boys during the day, and picked up some co-eds from UND (or maybe it was NDSU?) in the bars at night. Apparently it's really, really common for college kids at UND and NDSU to party in Winnipeg on the weekends if they're under 21.
We all have really fond memories of the trip. We had 5 guys and all of their crap in my piece-of-**** four door '95 Saturn from Ames to Winnipeg (which wasn't even 9 hrs). The smell that emanated from that thing when we got back to Ames was ungodly.

Mexico unless if you know people who are 21 that are going to be in destinations such as PCB and South Padre. I know when I was underage during spring break, we had a buddy buy us all of our booze, and we stayed a few nights up at the Dells and got drunk in our hotel.
Go to Cancun.
I've been to Cancun, Acapolco(sp?), Panama City Beach and South Padre Island and had the most fun in Cancun at age 20.
It's too bad that the drug violence has hit Acapolco - I wouldn't recommend that anymore.
Cancun had the best nightlife, and a ton of different "themed" parties during the day(mtv spring break, etc.)
I had the most fun during the daytime in South Padre Island since there's one main area on the beach where everyone is parting during the day and I mean everyone! Texas week rules.

Id be careful with this one, buddy of mine got an MIP at South Padre on the beach because the cop was willing to call in his name, go with him to get his id, etc.
I've had good times in Cozumel (not for spring break) and Miami. Saved money on the Miami trip by camping in the Everglades, but I realize that's not everyone's cup of tea. But, did some hiking, snorkeling and other swimming off of Key Largo (Pennekamp State Park).

I agree I want to know where you all work since it's obviously pays a hell of a lot better than my employer.
My brother poked me in the eye during one of my spring breaks. I had to wear and eye patch and I was on bed rest for 3 days. I don't recommend this or fighting with your brother before spring break starts.

I'd like to know as well, because I'm pretty sure they are full of ****. Mommy and daddy are paying their way.
