Fun Bucks Party Ideas
Okay so, we’ve all been that guy who says “I’m bored” but can’t bring himself to solve the issue, let alone propose one to a group of people. So let’s dial that feeling up to 11, add in the cold sweats and clammy hands, and now you’ve got what we in the biz call ‘Buck’s Party Planning Terror’. So how do we solve this? Well whilst every buck is different, here’s some general crowd pleasers to take the edge off.
Let's get ready to rumbleeeeeeeeeee
Smoking babes and Sipping Whiskey
Let’s say your buck is the kind of guy who loves the classier things in life- a winning hand, an aged Scotch, and a fantastic pair of ti…a topless lady. Why not indulge him in a night of all three options (well two and a pair). We’ve found most guys forget it's totally within the realm of possibilities to get yourself an apartment at a swanky hotel, bring your own bar, and loop in a topless beauty to deal cards into the small hours of the morning. Sit back, relax, enjoy the time with your mates and recall all the stories you’re gonna have to leave out of the best man’s speech, all over a not/friendly game of poker and the winning smile of a buxom babe. Remember, the only thing better than a Royal Flush is boobies.
Golf and Beers
Can’t tell a Spade from a Heart? Well let’s move onto a club with a business end and take this onto the green. Treat your mate to a day out, the full 18 holes if you will, followed by a few casual beers. This kind of thing is perfect for a more casual vibe, say a lazy, sunny afternoon. Alternatively, this is fantastic as a mere appetiser for a party that’ll go deeper into the night then you will any bunker. For the right Buck this’ll truly be above par! (Low hanging fruit I know but I had to do it).
Alternative: Swap out the clubs for your own two hands and go for lawn bowls! Turns out this sport is not just for the elderly and can actually be a great time with the boys!
Fishing
Got that mate who lives on land but thrives at sea? Well why not cater to it! Hire a boat and sail that sucker (or let the captain do it) out into whatever bay is closest to you, crack out the rods and cast the day away with your boys. Of course it doesn’t just have to be you, your zinc, and a couple of miscreants, why not bring an esky, or “Chilly-bin” if you’re from across the ditch, loaded with your favourite bevs? Roll on out the tunes, and even a BBQ if you’re feeling friskie and just enjoy a day out on the big blue. And for your mates that wouldn’t know a shark’s smile from its cloaca, some of these hire boats come with a full crew and captain who’ll teach you techniques and the proper way to dress your catch (and I don’t mean in a nice sundress with a pair of converse). Some will even help you cook it right there on the boat for the freshest seafood you’ll ever eat.
Add on: Opening your own beers is exhausting, so why not add a trifecta of topless beauties to help you out. With smiles as bright as the sun these lasses will share a joke, and could probably pull a rod even better than you. Just remember to keep an eye on that one mate that’s trying harder to catch a glance than a fish.
Okay okay, we’ve set up some chill options, now let’s look at the high octane stuff.
Overnight partying
First we’ll kick it off with the all time favourite- grab your buck, grab a limo, and get yourselves to a hotel room in your CBD of choice. Put your faces on and get those pres down you before you move out into the night and really get the party started. There’s plenty of venues you’ll throw a few free drinks your way if you tell them you’re a Buck’s party, and sometimes you’ll even get some of the more exclusive accesses to venues. There’s also plenty of ‘skip-the-line’ companies that’ll get you through the front door to any number of places, with a drink card in hand. Whether he’s a clubbing or a bar man, there’s plenty of lights and music to choose from, why not even switch between and curate your own vibe? Get pumped, get dancing, and don’t come back till morning, as long as everyone’s got a key to get in, you’ll be swapping stories for the next week. And remember, if you’ve lost that one mate and your 14th-floor-apartment-in-a-5-star-hotel-in-the-central-party-district-of-your-city-of-choice is rocking, don’t come a’knockin!
Harcore mode- Buck-napping
We’ve all seen it in the movies, but let me assure you this is not just Hollywood fantasy. Remember that limo at the start and how I said “grab your buck”? Well why not do it wearing balaclavas and when he least expects it (tip: avoid police stations). Smuggle your Buck into the car before cracking out the beers and trading that interrogation light for club strobes.
(What does the Buddha order at a burger joint?)
One With The Lot
Let’s go all out.
Saturday: It’s a racing stat with high octane Go-Karts and explaining to your mates why you never went pro for the rest of the weekend. Then it's off to annihilating clay-pigeons with a 12-Gauge shotgun for a couple of hours to get your appetite for destruction out of the way. The afternoon is spent brewery-hopping, with tastings of both the bevs and the burgs, and a cheeky hired driver to get you from A to B to C (if you make it to Z that’ll be a world record). Then the night kicks off at your hotel- poker with the boys served by topless waitresses and dealer, all primed to get you ready for your steak dinner. Once the steak is history, its time for the night of all nights. Skip the lines and blast your way through any club you can get to.
Sunday: Recover.
This’ll make you want to get married all over again.
So whether you're into swinging a club, dancing the night away, or the spiritual dichotomy between beers and spirits, there's a million and one fun bucks party ideas to get your head around. Dive in!
