The Boy's Night In is a truly epic and amazing tradition. As people get older there is rarely enough time to hang out and relax with your best friends this kind of event rectifies this by packing a whole lot of fun into one night. Here is the perfect recipe for a great Boy's Night In.
Food is a crucial element to this event indeed, the whole thing is likely to revolve around it. You need to find a dish that is easy, delicious and preferably smothered in grease. Great options include pizza, chicken wings, curry and Thai food. These can all be easily ordered in at your leisure. Another option is to go the barbeque route this requires that you have a unit of course. Pile your grill with steaks, hamburgers, hot dogs and shrimps and everyone will be happy. Above all be sure to have sufficient quantities a boy's night in can't possibly end with an empty stomach.
An event is only as good as the people who attend and a boy's night in is no exception. You need to invite a good group of people who are up for having a good time and relaxing together. With this in mind it is best to invite people who already know each other very well, this will ensure that you have a good time reminiscing about past times and planning fun events for the future.
Location is another crucial element as you need to be somewhere comfortable where you will not be wary of creating a mess. After all, this kind of event is sure to create its fair share of clutter. So if you have a friend who absolutely can't stain his white carpet, its best to avoid that home. Instead settle for someone who has a nice, comfortable house and an easy-going attitude towards cleanliness this will help everyone else relax.
Finally, you need to take care of the entertainment: you will need a great TV unit, a DVD player and a games system such as an Xbox or Playstation 3. Rent some movies, get some great games and go for it. You can watch a string of DVDs in succession or plan a tournament around your games. Above all you should make sure the TV is large enough as you don't want to cluster a whole group around one tiny screen.
If you follow this blueprint you should have everything you need to have a great boy's night in. That said, every group is different so be sure to tailor your plans to your friends if you all love sports it would make sense to build it around a big game. You also want to take into account people's specific dietary requirements: your guests would be most upset if they couldn't eat the meal on offer. Above all be sure to have fun, let loose and have a good time with your best friends unfortunately, these nights can only happen ever so rarely so you need to make the absolute best of them.
