Okay, to start off, last weekend my brother asked me to be his best man at his wedding in November. First it came as a shock to me since we don't always get along but anyways. Second, I've never been apart of one so I need ideas for the bachelor party. Between me and the rest of my brother's friends, we are planning around the Oct 1st date for this to go down. We will be in the Chicago area and need ideas. If any of you have been apart of a bachelor party and had fun doing certain activities please share. I know the norm will be strippers and drinking and such, so we got that part down, I am just looking for new ideas that go beyond the norm. Thanks in advance. Let me know what you guys/gals think.

PS-- We have tossed around paintball, golfing, going to a race track where you get to drive race cars, shooting range, casino's then going downtown with a hotel room full of alcohol and women.

paintball or go carts sounds sick. or a wheeling trip if hes into that.

He's not much into wheeling and that sort of thing. We aren't quite sure if we are going to have just the wedding party or a big group yet. If we have a big group. Paintball would be good, and the driving thing is not go carts, it's full size race cars (you get all the gear and safety car and haul ass lol).

Whatever you do ,don't turn it into "The Hangover"
Kind of Weekend!
Personally ,I would stay clear away from having other
Women involved in a Bachelor Party.
I can't understand why someone would NOT
Want to take marriage vows seriously.

Anyway...
Paintball sounds great!
Oh ...and congratulations on being the best man!

Yea, it's definately not going to be as crazy as the hangover, but I do want it to be as memorable as possible for my brother. The other girls weren't really my first choice, but other people suggested it and it was alright with everyone, so they were added in. And they wouldn't be married yet so it will be ok lol. They've been together for over 4 years and engaged for 2. They will be ok. Thanks for your input

what's he into? every time i've been in a wedding the bachelor got to choose what he did for his bachelor party.

08Ranger Sport 4x4 · #10 09-12-2011, 03:28 PM

I appreciate all your input guys here's what the schedule is looking like so far.

9-1030 --Breakfast
11-2 -- driving at the race track
230-430 -- golf/driving range at top golf
5-6 -- drinking at the condo
620 -- train/limo into the city
730 -- hotel check-in/ drinks
830 -- dinner
10 -- blackout/make bad decisions

That is what I got in an email from one of my brother's friends who is helping me plan this out. Any thoughts or suggestions to add to this list? We are having in the weekend of 11/5 so there is still plenty of time to fine tune.

I'd vote paintball or racing
