Stag Do Pranks to Shake Him Up and the Neighbors
Stag parties are all about fun, adventure, and making the most out of your last moments of freedom. This is why a lot of men put a lot of time and effort planning for that perfect stag party.
To make it even more fun, the groom, best man, or whoever is planning the stag do can add stag do pranks into the itinerary. For some stags, it is all about fun and games and if the stag is not the type to object to such things, the stag party planner can actually do whatever he wants. Needless to say, pranks are fine so long as no one gets injured or worse.
How about kidnapping the groom? Brilliant plan! This way, he won’t even know what hit him or what he’s getting. However, a recent incident did shake up two witnesses to a groom’s “kidnapping.”
The Recent Sedgemoor Kidnapping
Sedgemoor’s police department receives a call from a woman reporting a kidnapping incident in their neighborhood that she witnessed together with her 14 year old daughter. Inspector Arman Mathieson says, “We received a call from a woman who had seen four men with tights covering their faces carrying a tied up man and bundling him roughly into a car.
“At around 1.30pm the vehicle was stopped by Avon and Somerset police at junction 24 of the M5, when it was established it was a ‘prank’ as part of a stag party.” The vehicle was pulled over by junction 24 of the M5 just before 1:30 PM on Friday. When the full story emerged, the men were told to apologize to the shaken up mother and daughter that witnessed the “kidnapping.”
Other Stag Do Pranks and Activities
Though being pulled over by the police can certainly mess up the whole itinerary that does not mean the fun should stop there. The show must go on and that stag night should still be a blast. So, what do you do?
In case you crossed kidnapping off your list of stag party pranks due to that incident, these are other stag party ideas to consider:
- A Smurf or Dwarf Date
Hire a little person (pay for all expenses of course), paint the little person blue (or not), and cuff the stag to that little person!
- Dare to Wear a Mankini
Made popular by Borat, only the bravest stags will ever dare to wear a Mankini! This will be perfect for stag do locations that happen to be holiday resorts.
- Viagra
Spike the groom’s drink with Viagra. It will certainly be a discomfort he’d notice during a lap dancing session. Just make sure that the groom is perfectly healthy and can take it as Viagra has unwanted side effects.
- Dye His Hair
The stag party planner usually knows the stag best. If he has a narcissistic streak, he’d certainly freak out if you carefully distribute some peroxide in his hair which can do wonders for visible aging.
- Break a Leg
After a drunken night of reveling, plaster up his leg as soon as he passes out drunk. You can even make up a story to back it up. It will certainly be a surprise once he wakes up!
Kidnapping the groom can be quite extreme for some stags, but it can also be a lot of fun. Stag party pranks exist for that same reason too… to have fun. Just make sure that it is safe and no one will really get injured. If you’re planning a stag party, spice it up with some stag do pranks!
Ways to Celebrate Your Stag Do This Year
Men who are about to get married tend to look forward to their stag do especially when they have been to really fun stag dos in the past. Now, if you will be having your stag do soon, here are some ways to celebrate your last night of freedom this 2013.
If there’s one thing that a stag do should be… it is that it should be memorable. In order for that stag do to be memorable, you just really have to know what the groom-to-be wants or enjoys. That’s also the reason why the best man is usually the one in charge of planning for it.
Stag Night vs. Stag Weekend
Nowadays, stag weekends are more popular than stag nights. Humble stag nights of days gone by are now replaced with foreign holiday mini vacations. For a lot of men, a weekend in an international destination is much better than just pub crawling or having a night on the town.
Of course, each option will also have its pros and cons. Stag weekends tend to be more expensive and going to an international location adds to the expense as well. Still, for a lot of men, a stag weekend is a lot better as it gives them more time enjoying a number of activities with their best mates.
Also, not everyone can really get time off and spend an entire weekend with you. As opposed to celebrating your stag night in town, only some of your friends might be able to join you for your stag weekend.
Daytime Stag Do Activities
Those that will be spending a stag weekend in an international location will require certain daytime activities to enjoy. Though different men enjoy different things, there are certain daytime stag do activities that appeal to a lot of men.
The most popular daytime activities are 4×4 off-road driving, buggy racing, quading, clay shooting, go karting, and paintballing. Just choose one or two of those to enjoy during the day to make sure that not a minute goes to waste.
Nighttime Stag Do Activities
At night, stags just have to choose the sort of entertainment that they want to have. Most stags choose to go to clubs with exotic dancers. Those that do not really want that can enjoy another activity. One other popular nighttime activity would be pub crawling.
The person in charge of organizing any stag or hen party should make sure that the activities involved will be activities that the celebrant will love. Stag pranks might be fun for some, but others would rather do without them. Basically, you just have to know what the celebrant wants.
The 3 Types of Stag Parties
Friday night is boys’ night out. It may be a weekly occurrence for some blokes but getting married certainly isn’t. No groom can escape without a Stag celebration, whether it’s a single night or a weekend. Few would want to escape even if they could and there are plenty of ideas for something a little bit different.
There are also companies that specialise in providing and organising those ideas in a large range of different locations. A groom has enough to do without organising the event so, usually, the best man may take on the task of the stag event unless he is still wrestling with his speech! However, it is far better to leave the task of organising the event to a company that does stag parties professionally.
The Stag Night Out
There is unlikely to be anything routine about what is on offer on a typical stag night out. Usually, the boys out on the stag night will give the groom a surprise sometime during the night. There have been plenty of occasions when a groom has woken up miles from home, even on his wedding day.
Whilst I’m not advocating that you do something like that, I am suggesting that you have as much fun as possible on your stag night out! It’s been proven time and time again that a night out with the boys is a tried and tested method of having a great stag do.
You can even choose to go to another location and set off for a city in a foreign country! Just make sure you the stag doesn’t pay for any of the drinks and that he has a sore head in the morning!
The Activity Laden Stag Do
A night out with the boys is one way to let off steam but activities provided by a specialist have become increasingly popular as well. Some think that paintballing is the best option and some opt for go karting and rafting. Whichever you choose, make sure there is plenty of time between the stag activity and the wedding day, just in case the paintballs leave unwanted bruises! However, there is no outdoor activity that is not supervised by trained people so you’ll be in safe hands.
Daytime activities are a great way for the stag and his mates to have fun and is an ideal preparation for the nighttime activities! Make sure you take plenty of photos when your on your activity laden stag do, so you can brag to your friends back home about how many go kart races you won or how many of your mates you shot with your paintballs!
The Sophisticated Option
Most cities have exclusive restaurants that can host special occasions such as wedding anniversaries and birthdays. They will be only too happy to help friends on a Stag Night with a meal, fine wine and expensive champagne. It may be as a prelude to visiting a club but for some people, they don’t want a night out on the town and would rather have a sophisticated meal with friends in a great location.
Some stag nights even have gold medal winners, provided by Classique’s Speakers that speak about their achievements and are great to listen to after the sit down dinner. This is a great option for more mature stag parties where being around great friends and great entertainment is the ideal stag party.
