Buffalo Bachelor Parties
Ok, so we were talking about bachelor parties after hockey last night. One of my teammates is from the Buffalo area and let me in on how they do bachelor parties up there.
So what happens is the best man gets a bunch of like business cards printed up (or does it at work) with invites to the bachelor party. Free beer and food, $20. The groomsmen and the father sell these cards out to people. "Hey, my son is getting married. $20 for the bachelor party!" And if they can't make it you say "Hey, how about you chip in and donate to the party so we can do it up right?"
You buy a key and some food. You sell three tickets and you've paid for the keg. Five more tickets and the food is paid for. The rest goes to the groom.
Then you have the door prizes. It's up to the groomsmen to donate something for door prizes. Bottles of booze, whatever. My buddy was at one where someone donated a big beer fridge. So you charge $10 per ticket for the door prizes and this money goes to the groom. Then you hire someone to deal Blackjack too. Give them 10% of the profit, the rest goes toes to the groom.
Eventually you are looking at a good party where the groom walks away with like $500. Hell, up there these are so common randoms will show up at the bachelor party if they just went to college with one of the groomsmen just because they know it'll be a good party. So it's pretty common for the groom to walk away with $3000.
Dare we attempt this for one of the many bachelor parties coming up? Douglas is the obvious test case.
