(I'm assuming another) Bachelor Party Questions Thread

[cyfanatic13]

@cyguytillidie, @VikesFan5, @Fitzy, myself, and a few others sat in the Bud Club at the I Cubs game on opening night. $30 a ticket for all you can eat and all you can drink Bud Light and Budweiser. I think it's more expensive in May but it is something you could get tickets for now I believe. It was a heck of a time and I could see it being a fun part of a low key bachelor party

Husband went to one in DSM, but there was much drinking involved. What does your brother like to do? Golf? Sports? Camping?

Not into golf or anything out doorsy. A little on the nerdy side if anything. He's a sports fan, but he doesn't want to go to an I Cubs game

Why even have it with no booze or strippers? Why not just do a couples night out with everyone? Would likely be more fun than go-carts and video games and you've pretty much eliminated the reasons for "guys only."

I know, that's why this is so hard. I'm trying to make it better than his 13th birthday party.

I guess the question is "What does he like to do?"

 

[Cyinthenorth]

Unless this is the most PG group of guys in Iowa I would not recommend perfect games or Ames in general. Des Moines all the way. Boating suggestions was good. Golf, live music maybe

It is the most PG group of Iowan guys. Also the boat idea is intriguing, though I have no idea if anyone in the group is capable of driving one.

He is a big sports fan, especially baseball, so iCubs would be ideal, but he has already decided against it due to nobody else in the group, besides me, liking baseball.

He doesn't do a lot of 'guy' stereotypical hobbies ie Hunt, fish, golf, like strippers, drink himself into a stupor etc. It's kind of like he's a 12 year old boy trapped in a 23 year old's body. And his friends are all the same way pretty much.

Maybe take the group here?

If he's at all willing to travel, canoe the Upper Iowa River. Booze isn't required to have fun and it's spectacular.

I also don't believe that there are 12 adult males in northern Iowa who "don't really drink".

maybe paintball then? I'm assuming most of them like food at least? Paintball or boating - something like that and then grill out at somebody's place.

Yikes. Maybe you guys would a enjoy a night of scary movies and playing Dungeons And Dragons

We did tactical laser tag (http://www.ectacticallasertag.com), up down, and zombie burger before heading out to the bars for a buddy's party.

 

[CloneinWDSM]

Sounds like updown may be a solid option for 12 nerdy guys

I am thinking of a country song. Old enough to care but still to young to know better. (I may have this backwards after reading this thread)

Sound like this group NEEDS a night of boozing at the strip club. What the hell do these guys do for fun?

 

[CyCrazy]

JFC, might as well go to Saturday mass and call it good.

 

[CYphyllis]

Why even bother. Best bet would be to shelve the idea for this go round and hope by his second marriage he's lightened up enough to be able to throw an actual bachelor party.

 

[Cyinthenorth]

Got some decent ideas and a lot of good laughs from you guys. Thanks for getting the ball rolling for me
