Default Hurricane Parties!

Who's hosting a Hurricane Party?!

The last one I went to was BYOB and the price of admission was a roll of toilet paper!

There will be a free urinalysis party conducted by all local sheriff's--remember all those partyers, who were celebrating Katrina and ended up spending a week in the super dome

Hurricane parties are for immature children with no investment in their life yet in anything that can be damaged or destroyed by a severe storm. Neighbors can help neighbors, but the best bet is to stay sober during a storm.

So right, a lot of people stayed in a beach front hotel during Camille to party--their bodies were never found--

If you all don't stop eating all the Hurricane snacks, you won't fit into the little helicopter rescue basket.

If one thinks about leaving one must be keenly aware of......doing it...SOONER than later.

Roads out are quickly turned into very long parking lots.
Most people wait too long to decide to leave.

If you do not have a full tank of gas, now, you are not ready to leave. You can safely assume no gas availability along the way in the state of FL.
During Irma gas was difficult to come by as far north as Atlanta!!

I personally would rather hunker down here at home in TV than in a car on the road some where.

Guess our neighborhood will be considered immature, we are all working together to get everything secured on Saturday and the party will be Sunday. Oh yeah, average age is 72.

Total amateur hour, make sure to write your SS# on your feet--hurricane parties are for people who go sky diving without parachutes

Since the storm won't make landfall until Monday pm or Tuesday am, I don't think you can puff your chest out for "riding out the storm partying" Once upon a time I thought you mature. Storms must affect people differently. People will lose homes, people will lose lives... have a great time.

Where can you go ? All of Florida is in the cone. Once you get north of Florida rooms in hotels etc will be scarce since this is Labor Day weekend. Also if you leave then you have to worry about traffic and gas availability to get back home

Can I come to your neighborhood party? Nothing immature about having fun, as long as you don't neglect your responsibilities.

Whatever it takes to get you through a storm safely and happily. If the choice is staying anxious and alone or with others exchanging stories and food, either way won’t make a difference on the storms’ outcome.

But you only need a parachute if you wanna go a 2nd time.
