The stag night, also known as a bachelor party, is the
celebration a man will have during his last days of freedom before he gets
married. It seems to be the tradition that the party will include a lot of
beer, a lot of chanting and possible a stripper or a visit to a strip club, and
most certainly the humiliation of the groom. On the other hand, in these modern
times it is likely that the bride to be will also have a hen party that
involves just as much drinking and even a male stripper! But if drinking is not
your thing and you would like to set a good example for your bride in the hope
that she does not feel the need to compete with a wild party and have one of those traditional drunken hen nights, then consider
some alternative ways to celebrate your stag party - there are plenty of
activities to choose from.
Mud buggying
The trick to having an awesome stag without the need for
excessive drinking, naked women and unruly behaviour, is to think of something
adventurous that will give your stags an adrenaline rush or a good laugh. A fun
option, guaranteed to generate some fun and for a chance for the guys to get
their hands dirty is a day riding mud buggies across grassy terrain. Mud buggy
days can be booked as a group, with full safety kit provided and lots of bumpy
open space to tumble around in.
Paintballing
If you reckon your stags will be looking for a little more
rough then paintballing is the way to go. It is competitive, and it hurts, but
will give the guys plenty to talk about and likely some war wounds to show off
after the game. Running around a pretend military base hiding behind trees with
a gun is bound to be fun.
Zorbing
For the ultimate rush, "zorbing" is a fun way to
get the guys together. One by one, your stags will be strapped into a giant
inflatable bubble and pushed down a large hill. While all this happens the rest
of you will be standing at the top of the hill laughing as you hear your mate
scream whilst he tumbles down to the bottom in what looks like a giant hamster
toy.
Whaetver it is you decide to do for your stag party, make
sure it’s fun, memorable and that it is accessible for all of your best male
friends and goes down in history with the rest of the stag nights to remember.
