AKL's on our campus have something similar in idea. It's the AKL Lumber Party, and the shirts have a big lumberjack on them and say...

"Where everyone gets hammered and nailed!"

Halloween and other costume party ideas have been overdone already, but with the recent explosion of comic book adapted media in American entertainment, why not advertise college fraternity socials in which guests are asked to dress up as known or invented superheroes/superheroines?

You could call it Fantasy Hero Pit.

I could see my people-friendly fraternity Bones Gate, a localized chapter of the popular national fraternity Delta Tau Delta, at Dartmouth College (Hanover, New Hampshire) reveling in such a theme party.

We had a

1) Jamaican-themed party complete with a steel drum band

2) Clothes "barty", where everyone had to trade clothes with one another when a certain song played (like musical chairs), so guys were wearing bras and girls were wearing guys' stuff

3) "Pi" eating contest, where everyone competed in eating things that started with the letters "pi" - pickles, pies, pizza, pinwheels (cookies), etc

4) Heavy-metal themed party for Halloween

5) Toga party

I had a super fun party with a fraternity from another school when I was in college. It was the Pony Express party. Everyone that entered got a name tag that only had a number. People could go to a desk at the front of the fraternity house and write a note to a number, from (their) number, and then a brother riding a little broomstick pony would deliver notes every 15 minutes or so. Like, "hey, it's #35, I think you're cute! And I love your shirt. From, #12) It was so fun and really good with getting people who normally weren't social to be more so.

I haven't posted in quite a while, but I saw this idea and I thought I would tell you about it. It's called The Great North American quest.

There has to be 3 floors, or 2 including a basement. The top floor would be canada and you would have themes and drinks from that country. the middle floor would be America and you would do the same for that, and the basement or the first floor would be mexico. Basically, we called this a party, not really a social. Because you would have drinks from all three countries. If you were caught on a different floor than of the drink you had in your hand, the border control would catch you and you would have to do so many shots or drink so much to get to the next floor. It's really funny, and I can see people getting wasted real fast. So if you want to do it, just say it's a "party" not a social.

i know this is kinda stereotypical, but last year we had a toga dance. it was SUPER fun b/c everyone wore different kind of sheets...and it was interesting to see what ppl had chosen to hold them up with...this year our theme dance was a pj dance "alpha gam pajama jam" which was really cute...esp. since that night we were under a tornado watch. we were having so much fun, though, that no one noticed.

you may, however, want to impliment a dress code...

We did a "Go Geek" party aka Nerd party once that was a lot of fun - I think every guy there had a pocket protecter & his shirt coming out of his fly!

The only other one I'm thinking about right now is the Woodstock party, 1969 style - hippies, etc. We served "Electric Kool Aid" by getting 2 punch bowls, and having flashing Christmas lights between the smaller & larger punch bowls. You can electrify your punch however you wish!

A lot of houses on my campus have glow in the dark graffiti parties-- they put black lights all over the place, and people wear plain white Tshirts and write all over each other in highlighter so they'll glow under the lights. The shirts are fun to read the morning after

My sorority did a costume blind date party at a local restaurant-- your sisters set you up with someone, and gave you half of a costume so when you got to the party you could find your date; one girl had bunny ears and had to find a boy with a magicians hat, and people with devils horns had to find their dates with devil tails, etc.

We also do a Handcuff date party where you get handcuffed to your date for the whole night-- it makes for some interesting stories afterwards ;p

I've never heard of a Mardi Gras before.

A fraternity at our school had a "Highlighter Party" where everyone would go in white shirts and jeans they didn't mind getting written on, and everyone wrote on everyone else while dancing or just hanging around. It was A LOT OF FUN!
