Friends are added and subtracted with the click o a button. Andchatting happens over the computer instead o over a drink.

odays world is neutered. A night is deemed a success i a ew

laughs escape rom the miasma o pleasantries and moderation.

Wild abandon has been replaced by domesticated chitchat.

odays world needs Party Animals like never beore. But who

will mentor the next generation o maniacs? Who will coach the

uture carousers? Who will help the next reak flags fly?

Animal flame alive.

hell-raisers o all time and distilled it into this powerul, proven guide.

From ancient bacchanalian Greeks to the suburbanites donning

lampshades to the rock stars who party like, well, rock stars, Party

Animals have lef their mark on historyand the carpet.

Introduction

Now its time to leave yours. Its time to celebrate, protect, and encourage

the prolieration o the North American Party Animal. o help you better

master the complexity o the Party Animals instincts and abilities, weve

created a simple acronym (P-A-R--Y) to help you understand the basicso what it takes to be a champion Party Animal.

P = PREPARE Te first step to partying actually happens well beore the

partying begins. A Party Animal must be properly educated, rested, well-

hydrated, and well-ed. We will discuss this urther in Chapters 1 and 2.

A = ADAPT Knowing the party scene is hal the battle, and owningthe party is the other hal. From house parties and toga parties to

oam parties and afer parties, Party Animals must be able to adapt and

acclimate to every changing environment including their own home

bases, and weve got you covered in Chapter 3.

R = RELATE Party Animals are social creatures through and through.

So knowing how to behave and how to interact with ones pack are

critical or a Party Animals survivalat least survival o the night.

And Chapters 4 and 5 will cover all the basics.

T = TROUBLEBelieve it or not, a Party Animal does have limits. But to

find them, he needs to push against them. Sometimes that means rebelling

against societal norms. Sometimes that means putting rozen pee under

someones door. Regardless o the maniestation, there is a need or Party

Animals to stir up some troubleand Chapter 6 will help show you how.

Y = YEAH!!! Language is what separates humans rom the animals. With

the exception being Party Animals who speak in their own languagea

lexicon filled with terms or everything rom hal-drunk beers to hal-drunk

people. Chapter 7 is your source or how to speak fluent Party Animalese.
