#32 - (4-Way Tie) Zip's B'Party, Rob's B'Party, Holm's B'Party and Jeffstorm - 1990, 1992, 1993, 1998
I'm having trouble making cuts so I combined these 4 excellent Bachelor Parties as a tie. I'll be fairly brief with just highlights of each one!
- Zippy's - Met up with Jeff (Thing #1) and Dan (Thing #2) at Mother's (a bar in Huntington Beach) had a few beers and headed downs to Newport Beach. Thing #1 and Thing #2 took the only bedroom in the joint pissing off a few Guacho's who had no idea who they were. Within 5 minutes of Jeff and Dan meeting Zippy he was naked and walking around the room in just his shoes with a lollipop in his hand. The police raided and I snuck out the back. I then walked around the block and came up to the cops and complained about how loud that group had been all weekend. The cops left. I tried to leap in the air and spit beer off the ceiling, landed and slipped and destroyed the kitchen table. Some of the attendees tried to sleep in a building under construction, but in the middle of the night a realtor showed up and was showing the building to people. Zippy drank from a pumpkin as we poured beer in it. "Get a woody or hit the floor" was chanted. I helped to body slam Brian as he tried to flee from the evenings entertainment. Craig slept on a beer covered floor using his shoe as a pillow. I slept on the chair in front. Played volleyball and hoops. Pictures that should never have been taken still exist and appear at various YBC sponsored events. LASTING RESULT - Incriminating pictures!
- Mark's - Craig and I drove up to Tahoe to meet up with the group at the cabin that was rented for the occasion. We drank heavily and I got to see THE MOST AMAZING VOMIT (in terms of quantity) THAT I EVER SAW as Craig staggered out back and began to puke and puke they were like geysers erupting from his esophagus. Mark passed out within the 1st hour of the party and vomited in a Frisbee. Jesse THE DOG then started to eat it. We invented the game Bobble in the backyard and played for hours. That night I agreed to let them give me a Monkey Grinder haircut. Jim Powell and Rob manned the razors as Jeff directed the proceedings. Brother Brian got in a fight with his friend and sped off into the night. Jesse chased ducks through the wetlands. LASTING RESULT - Bobble
- Jeffstorm - Started in SF ended in Huntington Beach. I papermached a giant lemon that Jeff was forced to wear on his head. Everyone took turns wearing it at some point. We started at Pizzeria Uno's where everyone gave a toast to Jeff. Shern's memorable ode to Thing #1 in his reading of The Cat in The Hat was extremely memorable. Brian arrived a bit late and told the hostess "I'm here to meet some friends", the hostess asked "Is one of them wearing a giant lemon on his head?" Brian shook his head and replied in a sullen voice "Probably" Later that night the Cobra was ignored, Frank was dragged by his head 15 feet, and Jeff the steely tongued devil mouthed off. The next morning we headed to Huntington Beach. Jeff got lots of stares wearing the giant lemon in the airport. The mystery guest Ed showed up. We started with beer and dinner and then walked outside. I tried to hale a cab turned around and everyone was gone. Deserted me again! I went into a bar and drank quite a bit, then started to walk to Mothers. 4 hours and 6 miles later I arrived at Mothers. It had just closed and Jim P and Chuck and Zip were out front. Jim P had been scamming but shoving his scabby knee in the woman's face had drove her off and Jim P was bitter. We tried and tried to get a cab. Hours later we got one. The next day we played volleyball, the Gauchos crushed the Aggies 15-12 and 15-11. That night Zippy was ostracized and almost stabbed by the group. We headed to the beach and lit a campfire and drank. The cops showed and told us to go down to the water for the running of the grunion. We spent hours catching grunion. Ever the animal rights activist I objected to Luis trying to get the grunion drunk. "Save the Grunion!" "That's fish abuse!" And on and on......LASTING RESULT - The Thing #1 hat, Many Many Great Memories, Several Grunions lives.
