The Stag Do - Part I

Guess what?? Yup! This weekend I am invited to a stag do.
Problem is . . the guy who is getting married doesn't drink and the stag do doesn't cater for any of us watching the England team playing in the World Cup.

This brings me to ask you all a question:
What has happened to the good old normal stag do???

Organising a stag do used to be so easy.


Invite some guys
Go to pub
(Maybe have a stripper)
Drink until you drop
Wake up next morning with a traffic cone in your bed and no recollection as to how it got there or what happened the night before.

Now this has become a whole new ball game.
It is not a stag night anymore but a stag weekend - preferably in some far-flung country or at least the furthest extremeties of your own country.
Activities have now to take place from Go-Karting over Paint Balling to Mountain Climing.
Unless the average bill for each and every invitee is over £500 ($1000), the future groom and his best man are not happy.
And to top it all they then look at you in disgused if you get legless, as 'they don't drink alcohol'!!

Well, I will let you know on Monday how things panned out!

Hey,

You know why ypur stag party is not what it use to be right? It's cause the girls have taken them over, now we do the drinking and have the stripers. My friend just had one with 2 stripers, males of course. :)
