Nick's Wizard Party 2009

Nick had a wizard party last night with some of his friends. For the uninitiated, a wizard party entails the purchase of enough beer to drink your height ... the mechanism is to drink a beer, then duct tape another can onto the empty and crack that beer and drink it. Repeat until you have a staff taller than you. At that point, you become a wizard.

Nick's friend RMac (Ryan) became a wizard first. His friend Staples (Chris) became a wizard second. Rowboat (Rob) was third, and Nick never made it. His friend Aaron drank from bottles and was thus ineligible to become a wizard, although he apparently drove the porcelain bus the next morning and so should be considered an honorary wizard.

They played the Nintendo 64 all evening (yes, you read that right ... in a house with an XBox 360 and a Sony PS3, they chose to play the old Nintendo) ... and was it ever LOUD. I have my bedroom door closed and the music on pretty loud and it was entirely overwhelmed ... :-)

Some images from the party ... not exhaustive, but you get the idea ...

Robbie tries to tape another beer onto his staff ... he has apparently purchased one of the few beers that cannot stack well ... by round 7 this is really, really funny ...


Round 7 begins ...


Much later ... round 10 I think ...


Pretty much the end of the party ... everyone if very happy :-)
