Let me first start off by admitting the mistakes of me and my crew:

1. We messed up the guy-girl ratio
2. We stood around in the L-shape and stared at the ladies as they walked past
3. Then we got way too drunk and obnoxious and became the WOOOHOOO crowd
4. We continued to play the numbers game and approached girls even after we couldn’t hold a conversation without slurring
5. And we don’t remember much after the midnight toast

The next morning was rough. What can I say? We got caught up the hype of New Years and had an obnoxiously good time (while everyone around us probably thought we were idiots). About the only thing we did right was to get a hotel room downtown so that we could avoid the drive/cab home. But with friends coming in from out of town to have a good time, we of course acted like we were in 21 again and didn’t have a care in the world. And it showed! GUILTY!

This is the fourth year in a row that we have done something like this for new years. We’ve done it all; paid for general admission just to get in the door, bottle service to have our own table to hang out at, pay a little extra to get the all-you-can-drink wristbands. It really is a pain to organize for a group of 6-10 people and then you just hope you picked the right spot because it’s a crap shoot on new years and you’re not leaving since you shelled out big bucks. It was fun, but was it worth it? Maybe the first time, but not so much anymore. Let’s hope that I can avoid the hype next year.
