Funny T-shirts Parties Are Where It's At!

By Ben Mosley


I heard a friend of mine who lives in Los Angeles post something on Facebook recently about a party he went to where everyone was required to wear funny t-shirts. I was instantly intrigued, because that honestly sounded like a really fun way to get people interacting at a party. There is an instant common ground for everyone to talk about. "Where did you get your shirt?" "Oh, your shirt is so funny!" I sent him a message asking him the details about how the party was put together, and it all turned out to be quite simple.

As the name of the party game implies, each person who comes to the party has to be wearing some kind of funny shirt. Since there are literally thousands of different kinds of funny t-shirts on the Internet, people you invite should really have a hard time finding one. People will enjoy the laugh they get from the various shirts, but the best part is that the guests can demand to swap shirts with other guests at any time. Each guest will have a red card and a green card. When you want to swap, you have to give someone your green card. If you want to refuse a swap, you give the person who demanded the swap your red card. This would leave one person two green cards and the other two red cards.

The great fun of the party begins when someone has no red cards left. From what I understand, this is usually the hottest girl in the room. Everyone is dying to see the cute girls take their funny t-shirts off, so she ends up giving out whatever red card she may have left. When people start realizing that part of swapping shirts involves hot girls taking their shirts off, the trading goes nuts. Pretty soon, people are taking clothes off, putting clothes on, and forgetting the cards are even part of the equation.

Having plenty of alcohol at people's disposal certainly facilitates the trading of funny t-shirts. When people get a few drinks in them, they have a tendency to stop worrying about how silly they look. Another good thing to point out is that hot girls really enjoy being hot girls. They like showing their bodies off too, especially if they put a lot of time and effort into making that body look incredible. After a few beers, these girls are more than willing to make a room full of guys appreciate what those funny t-shirts are hiding.

The whole funny t-shirts party-swap idea is all in good fun, however. No one has any intention of taking advantage of drunk girls. The idea is to have a laugh at some hilarious shirts, and to loosen up enough to get a room full of half naked young people. The real trick to the party, of course, is to make certain none of your ugly friends get an invitation.
