I recently attended a bachelor’s party for the first time. The group had chatted about the plans for a few weeks now, so I had a general idea about what was going to happen. The plans sounded a lot different than plans that I’ve seen in TV shows and movies, so I wasn’t sure how it would play out.
I enjoyed the festivities for the whole day. There was a lot of drinking and games and food. We bounced around several bars / clubs and danced for a while.
This was the second time that I’ve really experienced the “nightlife” in DC. I still don’t think that this type of life is for me, but I can see why people enjoy socializing, dancing, drinking, waiting in line to the bathroom, riding in taxis / Lyfts, etc. At one of the clubs, they were playing Wonder Woman, so that was a nice distraction – I could move my body around to fit in and watch a nice feature film. I also observed people really going at it for grinding. It’s great to see that this type of dancing exists in real life – I think the last time I saw grinding like this was in high school. I think I stood out from the typical visitor of these establishments because someone came up to me and asked why I was here. I said that I was here for a bachelor’s party and then they nodded and went away.
From this experience, I think that it doesn’t really matter what you do for a bachelor’s party. As long as the attendees can let loose a bit and have an enjoyable time, it is probably going to be worthwhile.
