Let's say you were asked about two months ago to be the best man in their wedding, which is scheduled in May 2018. There are four groomsmen and you know three of the four pretty good. They already started talking about the bachelor party and it was just assumed everyone would spend a night in New Orleans, go to Harrah's, hit the strip clubs, do a lot of drinking, etc.

But then the groomsmen, who the best man recently met for the first time about a month ago, calls him up to talk about the bachelor party. He tells the best man that he would like to avoid going to a strip club and any type of gambling. Goes on to say he would rather it be something that doesn't involve drinking, but he knows that would be asking for too much.. Then suggest that we plan a weekend in Houston when the Astros plays a weekend series at home and we all go to the Astros games.

What would you do?

Leave it up to the groom, and be happy with whatever he decides.

I agree with him. I wouldn't want to get shot either.

Honest question. Do young guys getting married these days still do the stripper thing? I though this went out in favor of offshore fishing trips, golf weekends, etc.

I don't see the problem. He said no alcohol or strippers. There are plenty of hookers and blow in Houston.

Sounds like you have a great designated driver.

Consider this dumb luck and roll with it.

It's his wedding. Do what he asks. Besides, is going to an Astros series really a bad way to spend a weekend? You can still drink and see the town before or after the game.

This is why you are not in charge.

Mix a fishing trip in and stay in Galveston, wouldn't be a bad weekend.

Call Mike at Reel Threel Adventures out of Freeport

Troll him

Entertain his input, all the while planning the exact opposite. As far as he takes it to the left, I take it to the right.

No gambling: book rooms at a casino
No strippers: Order prostitutes
No alcohol: trick him into doing heroin

was the last one too far? maybe that one was too far

Well, there's more to life than getting drunk in New Orleans.

I'd do the best of both worlds. Rent a lake house on Lake Conroe or somewhere in Galveston. Take a guided fishing trip one day while grilling some steaks that night, then hit up the Astros and bars the next.

Who honestly cares about going to a strip club and having to be in New Orleans.
