Planning a Bachelor Party (HELP!!)

[Ranger Kip]

I am planning a bachelor party for my god father (Uncle), he has a daughter (12?) and is 48-50 years old (forget honestly). He likes the outdoors and this will be taking place in or around Denver, CO; where he lives. He used to scuba dive with my dad, he works in computer networking, and is a bit heavyset (215@5'9).

I am not too keen on the ideas of strip clubs, but Im not beyond the idea of pubs. Lets say Im planning this from either 10am-1am or 4pm-12am, just because I dont know how the schedule looks for that day atm.

Ive never planned one of these, and as far as I know (will update), It will just be me (22), dad (51) and the groom (50?).

Here is my idea list so far:

-Tandem Diving
-Rafting
-Kayaking
-Canoeing
-Gokarts
-Indoor sky diving
-Paintball
-Pub Hopping
-Comedy Club



We will probably do a few of these things in all.

I think at this age [I'm 52] a bunch of drinking would be out for me.
-Tandem Diving
-Rafting
-Kayaking
-Canoeing
-Gokarts
-Indoor sky diving
I'd like any of the above. Especially if it's something out of the norm.

He stated he could hold his own in a bar and usually doesn't mind drinking.

Sounds like fun. Do it!


Sent from my iPad avoiding something that I should be doing right now.

i say bar hopping followed by gokarts. sounds fun, right?

 

[Ranger Kip]

Well, I found out its going to just be the 3 of us, and probably be an all-nighter, we exnay'd the water based ones because of the temp right now, and he doesn't like techno music.

So Im at:

-GoKarts
-Pub hopping
-Indoor sky diving
-comedy club

Any other ideas? I really need ideas, supposed to be 12 hours of non-stop fun

 

[Ranger Kip]

Im down to Pubs and Gokarts, the indoor skydiving looked like its for kids and parents, and most of the comedy clubs aren't open on wednesday, and most of the clubs in the area are techno or tourist traps....

Im so lost, what the heck do you do for a 50 year old's bachelor party that doesn't have to do with sex or spending thousands???

Yeah, manly stuff w/o going to strip bars or getting pissed. At 50+ you're usually beyond that. I do like the comedy club and the go-karts. How about gun range or maybe skeet shooting? Racing car school? A flying lesson? Motorbikes? Huge bonfire with da boyz? Learn to hockey skate? What's his hobby? Do that.

My 2 pennies. At least the weekend before if not 2 weekends before he wedding. Find some traditional pubs and do a pub crawl using a limo or taxi service. Or you could see if a local micro brew is having a beer tasting.
