When my mate finished 12th with decent grades, we celebrated. It was a normal party, until someone suggested two guys I didn't know should fight each other, because one of them is a judoka and the other one a capoeira practicioner "That way we will know which martial art is better". The two of them were a bit drunk... trashing, screaming and destruction of property ensued. Meanwhile, a popular guy and his "best friend" disappeared for about fifteen minutes. Some girls who were in the party think that buttsecks ensued, even to this day.

This troper's eighteenth birthday started out as a refined Tiffany & Co. themed affair. By four in the morning, I was dancing on a table in my underwear, making out with a man nearly ten years older and accepting money in the waistband of my briefs.

This troper's 18th birthday party has warranted intervention by both the police and the FIRE BRIGADE. I boast of it to this day, and i am 30-something.

I have attended one of my first at college and let's just say some parties are not worth the hype as some make them seem.

A wild freshman party (I WASN'T THERE!) at This Troper's college ended when a drunk wrestling champ ripped a urinal valve off the wall and flooded the entire dorm, forcing the residents to spend the rest of the year in the haunted dorm that was scheduled to be renovated.

During a graduation party in this troper's high school, people behaved reasonably well (people made a mess but didn't trash the place), but somebody tripped and fell right on the band's amplifier, and we had to refund them the cost, and the bar where the party was hasn't allowed people to hold such events there since.

This troper has been to plenty of raves and some wild parties (one was bondage-themed) but one stands out in particular because it ended in tragedy:

When this troper was 16, a friend of a friend was throwing a party for her birthday. Word spread that this was going to be the ultimate party of the year. Hundreds of people were invited from the rich parts of Stockholm. The party was held in a school that had been rented over the weekend, and a kid with a baseball bat was the bouncer. After midnight the party really got started, with people drinking and dancing everywhere, girls puking outside, and some guy pissing in a sink. Everyone expected it to be really fun, but a serious brawl broke out outside. A rich kid was pissed and looking for a fight, and his gatecrashing friends were known to be football hooligans. A 16-year-old guy called Riccardo (this troper never knew him) had been hitting on his girlfriend for a while, and apparently the rich kid had decided "the faggot is gonna die". They beat up Riccardo - he got up, hit his attacker with a bottle, and ran for it. But these guys chased after the injured Riccardo, took him down, and '''kicked him until he died'''. Afterwards, everyone was in confusion. This troper doesn't remember much more of the party, except that he was drunk and took a taxi home. This is the Wikipedia article

This troper found out most of these details after it had happened.

I remember that :/ I wasn't at the party, mind you, what with being like thirteen or something at the time, but it was all over the news and I went to the memorial service. Made me a little scared of going out to party in the future and stuff.

This editor knew one of the killers. As a kid, he was a violent bully and his whole grade were scared of crossing him. He enjoyed tormenting an adopted Korean kid, and much later became involved with a football hooligan firm (before the murder).

This troper's class held a very good example of these during one of our field trips, when we stayed a few nights in a hotel. This troper himself left before the situation got completely out of hand, but the next morning the room where the party was had was a complete mess, a TV had been thrown through a window, two guys had passed out in the hotel's ball pit and pretty much everybody had a terrible hangover, with some people being violently ill and one of his friends suffering from a nasty blow on the head after she attempted to perform a spagate and hit her head on a radiator. The hotel staff was furious, to stay the least, but strangely enough the teachers didn't mind much (probably because they were sitting in the hotel bar during the whole time).

This troper's 21st shindig had 150 revellers turn up to enjoy the festivities. This was slightly confusing, as we'd only invited 100. However, the most awesome thing? The 50 gatecrashers all showed up in the attire of the party (Heroes and Villains, for those who are interested).

Every Rocky Horror Picture Show after party I've ever gone to since I was 16, though the age range was from 16 to 40. Rocky Horror folk are a strange bunch.

Our Campus Activities Board sponsored a showing of Rocky Horror at a local theater. 80% of the attendees were already drunk when they showed up. Cue beer bottles being thrown from the balcony, people dancing up on the stage, and at least one person falling through the screen, tearing it completely in half. The movie didn't even get halfway through before it was shut down, and it took 10 ''years'' before anyone would show that movie in town.

This troper's university biology class had a camp held in some cabins. Because this is Australia with a drinking age of 18 and it was a second year course, it was fully liquored up; the lecturer even went on liquor runs daily to the bottle shop in town. Anyway, one night ended with a guy putting his head through a door, people fighting with the fire extinguishers, someone urinating on the fireplace, and one guy puking over a balcony, falling off it, and landing in his puke. No sex as far as he experienced, saw, or heard, though two people ended up passing out fully clothed in a bathtub.

A brother and sister at this troper's high school threw a house party that over a hundred people ended up crashing. (This troper was rather square and bookish then, so he missed all the fun.) Over $2,000 worth of damage was done to the house, including cigarette burns and vomit stains all over the carpets and a thermostat ripped clear out of the wall. The parents, upon returning from vacation, made the kids pay every last cent for the damage. The next week I overheard two of their friends jokingly brainstorming a list of fundraising ideas ("bake sale," "car wash"...).

This troper has held some epic house parties in his time, but two incidents stand out. One involved two toilets, two sinks, one bath tub, and one shower all being occupied by vomiting teens. It turns out you have to let vodka jelly set or it goes down horribly wrong.

The second occasion spilled out into the park behind the troper's house. A few party-goers got mugged, others chased around the park shouting wildly about thieves before tracking one down and stealing their shoes as revenge. The party finally died when an attempt to demonstrate how to toss and catch a knife resulted in someone opening their palm sufficiently that we had to call an ambulance.

A friend's house party once ended with a broken terrarium, an escaped lizard, and neighbours knocking on the front door while most of us desperately scrambled over the back fence with as much of the remaining booze as we could carry. We ended up crashing out in a nearby scout hut because it was too late for any of the buses to be running to get us home.

This troper's two cousins held a party back in their teenage years (circa the mid-1990s) when my aunt and uncle went out of town, but they decided to be smart about it and take all of the family pictures down and put them away so they wouldn't get smashed and leave evidence of a party. They cleaned everything up and the house looked immaculate, except for one thing: they put all of the pictures back in the wrong places. My aunt and uncle figured it out almost immediately because of that.

ItsALongStory to explain how he got into it, but this troper recently found himself at a wild frat party where apparently even his mediocre dancing was seen as awesome, things were broken, everyone else was drunk ("No, my name is not 'Kanye', and please give me back my book!") or having sex, and there was not a spot of fresh air in the place.

The wildest party this troper ever went to was pretty crazy. I sadly went home early after being punched in the face by a drunk guy, but it was great fun. A friend punched through a wardrobe, two other friends ran around the house in togas, the police raided a couple of times (but fortunately didn't find anything illegal), and by the end of it, almost everyone had done at least one thing that they still haven't been allowed to forget.

A COUPLE times? Wow.

They could smell cannabis smoke, but they didn't find any weed. They came back when someone complained about the noise, searched the place again, and left grudgingly, telling us to keep the noise down.

Let's just see... A suburban house party began as a couple of guys sitting around drinking beer... and ended with the paintings from the living room being thrown through a window, the VCR being thrown through the TV screen, the toilet vanishing, and a guy trying to barter his left shoe for a beer.

Any party this troper's ever been to? Total inversion - her best friend's sweet 16 consisted of her, this troper, and another friend lying on a couch watching movies and eating popcorn for six hours before playing video games until three in the morning.

Similar to this troper's: her sweet 16 (and quinceanera, while we're at it) were both spent doing... house cleaning.

Similar here. This troper has never once been to a party I couldn't describe to my mother. Not only admit to attending, but describe. Despite (or possibly because of) this, I always had a completely fabulous time.

Neat subversion: this troper had a rather epic flat party last week, with about thirty people squeezed in (all known to this troper and his friends). Despite wild drunken behaviour, including dancing on tables, and a couple of people throwing up (thankfully in toilets), when the party wrapped up at about 3AM people offered to help clean up - and the flat actually ''looked better afterwards than it had before.'' Minus a ''lot'' of bottles stacked up about the place.

Call it decoration.

Totally inverted by this troper's friends, whose parties tend to involve more games of Economic Recession Monopoly and Doctor Who Tag than sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll.

This troper recalls a friend having a party that featured the cliché vase being broken. The vase was a gift to the young man's mother. From the Price of Qatar.

This Troper recently stayed with three of his friends in a house in the rural west of Ireland. Yet, somehow, they still managed to throw a house party of such wildness the security for the house they were renting turned up, threatened to evict them all, and would only leave after they payed an extra hundred euro deposit.

Inverted for this troper - her idea of a wild party is watching movies with two friends, starting a minor popcorn war, and falling asleep in a heap.

A few years ago, this troper's old classmates all got together to attend the funeral of a beloved former teacher. We later all got together for a little party. The host was one of the guys whose parents had basically thrown him out and who owned an apartment at the age of 16/17. Some of us, including this troper, went a little overboard. Our host got a bit of flak from his neighbors (as well as a police visit in the morning) after one of us managed to vomit down right onto the balcony of the tenants below us. A laptop disappeared from the bakery next door, but that was probably a coincidence. This troper woke up at five AM, naked and wet in the hallway of the apartment building next to his own, with someone's towel laid over him. To this day, the preceding events remain a mystery.

This troper recently had his first experience with truly wild partying. I'm a freshman in college and we had our homecoming weekend, which I had heard was always a nonstop party. However I didn't truly understand the scope of what people meant when they said this. I spent the night at a frat I have friends in. It was 9pm and the party was in the kind of drunken revelry you'd expect at around 2 in the morning. It only got better from there. I spent most of the night picking songs from my friend's laptop to be played over speakers loud enough to be heard halfway across campus, and personally jumped up and led the house in a call and response section of one well known and loved song. At some point someone thought it would be a good idea to get burgers at a Wendy's close to campus, which led to a few dozen people packing into cars and raiding the place. I only started drinking at around 1am, but by 4 I had personally drank nearly a case of beer. This being homecoming, half of the guests were alumni of the fraternity, and they turned it into a major dance party sometime around 4-5am. I ended up dancing on the chapter table with around 5 of the alumni. You aren't even supposed to put DRINKS on the chapter table. I finally stumbled back to my room around dawn. This was friday night-saturday morning. I still had alcohol in my system saturday afternoon and was hungover til tuesday. But it was so WorthIt.

This troper has been to a few, the most wildest being when he was 15 (just 16 now, so not long ago) where one of his friends threw a party which was full of booze, drugs, sexual acts, fights and plenty more (He shamelessly took part in all of these). The carpet got ruined, people where sick everywhere, but strangely enough there was no major damage. In the end the police turned up and atleast 3 girls got taken to the hospital to have their stomachs pumped. The police left, however, and the party still continued, but most people had stumbled home by then so it was a much more calmer atmosphere. This troper also has plenty more to look forward to, as he is going to sixth form college next year and then university, so there is atleast another 5 years of partying left - sweeeeeet.

This Troper's cousin had this happen to him in the most horrible way. His parents granted him permission to have four or five friends over for the weekend. When the college students across the street noticed the boys were home alone, they crashed it and invited everyone they knew. In the smartest move he could have made, he and his friends locked themselves in the bedroom and called the cops.

This is the reason why this troper is sat in her party clothes with a headache, no shoes, feet in tights covered in stuff that got spilled on the floor over the night, with her friends house in a mess, wearing someone elses hat and has just got out of her friends bed.

I just remembered what I did to hurt my knee!

This troper once got invited to a party, and invoked this trope with a couple of friends by keeping sober enough to screw up everything. The hosts managed to clear up the huge mess (even the one in his mom's underwear drawer), but they got in trouble when the parents wondered why the ice cube trays had frozen tequila in them.

This troper's class mate had a party that ended up turning into a drunken brawl on the street. Said class mate ended up with a $1,000 fine. This troper wasn't there though, she's not the wild party type.

Tropers/SunnyV has never been to one of these, and never really wants to. When her {{nakama}} gets together, they usually go to the park with Tropers/SunnyV's little sister, and then we play video games and talk about every possible subject till three in the morning.

I have never been to one (I'm not a party person), but I did get invited by a member of my English class when I said I said I hadn't been to one. Remembering my sister's bad experience of hosting one (and being busy on the same night), I declined. It turns out that said party was the birthday party of a guy I didn't particularly know, so it may have been for the best.

This Troper went to a real housewrecker party; a friend was getting evicted and wanted to trash the place before going. Imagine a bunch of headnecks with sledgehammers and pure grain alcohol. No sheetrock was left standing.

This troper's major in college does every semester a "sexual costume party" (which despite the name, sometimes is not good). Standard parties usually fall into three categories: wilderness, decadence (as in "could've been better"), and decadent wilderness. A particular class has thrown three parties that fall straight into the first camp: one included girls atop the bar counter dancing to questionable music while serving drinks (and an organizer said that after the party, "things NotOfThisEarth had to be cleaned!"), another had mooning freshmen (and the thrashing of the place was just as bad), and the third had again dancing barmaids, and also lesbianism, broken beer bottles, and chaos big enough for the building manager to come complaining... and eventually hit some girls.

The only parties this troper has are the ones at sleepovers with friends. However she did hear of one wild party ended in disaster (but don't most do?) with kids puking everywhere and some kids having sex on the parent's bed. I bet the host's parents were, uh... ''not happy''...

I avert this a lot. Even my 18th (well, the day it took place on) was spent just watching TV and listening to a CD I got, and the actual party was spent eating cake and turkey. I make it a point to stay clear of the behavior prevalent in these, (homecoming dances at high school were the ''worst'' cases) and to this day, the closest I've ever been to one was somewhere between cast parties after plays and an Eats Tapes concert. As if I was exactly the life of the party.

My teacher spent the lesson talking about her daughter having a party like this and having to clean the house instead of teaching us today. Apparently there was sick in the bath, wee on the floor, hole punched in door and wall, glasses broken, teens making out in closet and shagging in parents bed, neighbours complaining of noise, loud music, empty bottles on every available surface and on the floor, crumbs crushed into carpet and loads of underage drunken teenagers.

Here in Southern California (where this troper lives), we have tons of ranches. Because of these ranches, this troper has heard of these so-called, "Ranch Parties". Apparently, they're the cool thing at my school, since the partygoers can go wild, because there are no neighbors to complain to the police. This is considered irony, since the last ranch party that happened, the SWAT team raided the party three hours in.

This troper's eighteenth promised to be one. Hopes were dashed when it was proven that teenagers are capable of drinking in moderation and paying for things they break. Possibly the fact that people at my parties tend to talk about Camus and quote Dorothy Parker might have something to do with it.

I tend to hear about these more than I am ever invited to them. This is quite alright - I don't really see the fun in vomiting, causing massive property damage, and possibly making stupid or embarrassing mistakes. Maybe it's something you have to be taught...

My friends and I were attending a party that was treated like it's a once in a lifetime event at one of the campus gyms. My friends had some drinks before we went, but I didn't want any. We went and all of a sudden there were two big lines: one for guys and the other for girls. The girls got in fine, but the guys and I had to back up several times because people at the front kept trying to get in by shoving and students from other colleges kept going to the front instead of the back when they're just arriving. This caused the security guards at the entrance to resort to mace, spraying a couple of guys, including 2 of my friends (one of them got sprayed in the hair by mistake and one of them in the eyes). They were screaming in pain for some time. Also, some people in the line were also drunk and said nonsense. During the wait, it was raining lightly and it was cold. As soon as my friends and I got into the party, it ended after 10 minutes because some people decided to act foolish (Can't put my finger on what they did) and wreck it for everyone. This has ruined my night and everyone else's since we have waited for like a hour. It's like the event is telling me that not all parties are worth the hype; and I don't attend them often. At least my friends are in good health and not intoxicated.

Cast parties with students from this troper's school have had sex and body parts going through walls, but the only one this troper has been to had a bonfire and hours of dancing and grinding, near the end half of the people went inside to watch RENT, but then the police were called. They all had to come inside, but other than not it was not too wild.

[[{{Thereda}} This troper] went to a party thrown by a friend during the summer, which, through various types of alcohol and drinking games, ended with him in his underwear, making out with 2 different girls, and a dude, and going crazy. Mind you, I only found out about all this when photos were put up on Facebook. I couldn't remember any of it. --- Back to the party! Just be sure to hide the evidence before your parents get home. ---
