With the rise in popularity of the stag party, it’s no surprise that the Stags of Addiction are getting more popular as well. The stag party, as the name suggests, is for a bachelor who wants to get married and has a wedding at least six months away.
While the bride-to-be may be thrilled with the idea of being tied down to just one man, or just one man for a long period of time, the bachelor may feel like he’s got nothing to lose. After all, who doesn’t want to be single, and not stuck to someone they’re unhappy with? With this in mind, it’s easy to see how these parties have evolved into the Stags of Addiction. Bachelors have decided that being single is the only way to get married, so they are willing to put up with whatever the guy wants him to do – even if it means going wild with a bottle of Jack Daniels and a strip tease.
It’s important to keep in mind that it’s not just booze that is involved in the party, but also alcohol. Since the Bachelor usually chooses the bride, it’s not uncommon to have the groom-to-be (or his soon-to-be ex-boyfriend) making the rounds in search of a willing female to go out with and have fun with. The Bachelor usually has some idea of who’s available and often makes it clear that this will be the only night out of the month for them. This leads the groom-to-be to make sure that he’s present at all the parties, and that the Stags of Addiction will not break any rules. However, the Bachelor might not be present at all of the parties, so that leaves the groom-to-be to be the most important part of the party.
