Stag Night

The good old British stag night is synonymous with boozing and men behaving badly. This tradition is still going strong and can still be witnessed in most major towns and cities across the UK usually on a Saturday night.

In recent years this phenomenon has become increasingly international and the British stag is now a frequent flyer on many a budget airline to European cities -especially those where the beer is cheap...

Wherever you plan to hold your stag night, follow Whacky Sport's handy hints to ensure that logistically your stag night is perfect!

Handy Hints

Make sure you have a plan and schedule of where you are going and what you are doing, write it down and give it to all the stags beforehand. This way all the stragglers, latecomers and lads that take longer to get ready than their girlfriends will know where you'll be!

Make sure you have a mobile with you should any of your group lose their timetable - If you are abroad make sure you and at least a couple of other group members have international roaming set up on your mobiles before you go.

If you have arranged some form of entertainment for the groom, double-check beforehand that it's acceptable with the establishment you will be in. Not all pubs and bars will welcome the sight of young (or old!) ladies taking their clothes off in front of their customer...

If you're rounding your night off in a club check the dress code beforehand and check their entrance policy for groups of males. You may find yourselves having to adopt Noah's "the animals went in two by two" staggered club entry approach and meet up inside once you're all in.

It's always a good idea to get to your last venue of the night whilst everybody can still walk and looks mildly compos mentis - most bouncers have a tendency to refuse entry to slobbering drunks.

And finally make sure you arrange a reliable alarm call if you have a plane or train to catch the morning after...
