McCarty Party 29 was, naturally, a huge success. Of course we had body painting and beer and live music and beer and party games and beer… and beer. The “Underwear Underground” took place at midnight for the third straight year, thus establishing itself as yet another McCarty Party tradition. Cousin Billy managed to kick the driveway’s ass (it was getting a bit unruly) with his forehead. He returned to continue drinking later (you know, after he regained conciousness)… a little bloody but undaunted.
But to be honest, the 2010 party was more or less the same old thing (i.e., copious amounts of adult beverages being consumed by people who apparantly still think they’re 25 years old)… with one exception. McCarty Party 29 was the last party that Dale will ever attend as a bachelor. So, more than anything else, this party was mostly about the end of an era. Which, when we think about it, is kind of cool… because next year is the 30th annual McCarty Party (and that’s when things will start to get really weird)!
