my buddy is going to be a daddy soon and i offered up my lake property to have a "daddy diaper party" for him, this is a no chicks, just the dudes gathering... OUTDOOR party... cooking out, keg, and ????

I think Cornhole is one idea already but im looking for suggestions for stuff for the guys to do.. my boat dock is'nt finished yet so water access is a little cramped for fishing off shore..

help me out and maybee list some outdoor activity's i can do to keep the party going awhile age group is going to vary from 18 on up to 60 so a real gap..
 
Fire! Always fun.

This is a excuse to help a friend stock up on disposables (diapers) he's a young guy and him and his girl can use all the help they can get. Now to reply to you, you have taken portions of my post and combined them in a attemp to make this sound [censored]. shame on you..
 
My suggestion is admittedly uninspired, but it could be pretty helpful nonetheless.... Stop by a toy store and get a handful of Frisbees, Nerf footballs, junk like that. Horseshoes for the old dudes. Borrow a few baseball gloves from some friends or coworkers. I'm a perv, so I'd make or buy a larger or life-size cut-out of a naked chick covered with post-it notes. Have guys answer sports questions, dude-movie questions or something, with a post-it coming off each time a question is answered. Google "sports trivia questions" or "guy movie trivia."

My apologies in advance, but I'm obligated to throw in a line from the movie Office Space: "Hey, Peter! Watch out for your cornhole."
 
By the way, after seeing the photo of the flaming washing machine (a first for me), I now realize that any party that doesn't include an inferno-appliance is thoroughly LAME!!!
 
For a little random punctuation:
Get a few champagne bottles and fill them to different levels (no less than one third and no more than two thirds) with gasoline and recork them. Recorking champagne bottles is difficult but can be done. Anchor them securely standing straight up before setting the wood in place.

LOL, one of my friends and I got into the habit of setting old, broken things on fire in the backyard around 2009. Appliances are pretty fun to light up. We still have a fire pit but mostly stick to burning wood these days. Luckily we have cool neighbors who don't mind blatant HOA violations happening in the backyard.

New Year's Day did involve a pack of fireworks being thrown into the fire though which resulted in everyone running.

Not bad.. appreciate the ideas !
 
FYI, a Google search of "party ideas OR activities OR games" comes up with a boatload o' debauchery. I recall that the motorcycle gang in Mad Max carried around a nude woman’s manikin with them, so I suspect that’s an important part of the equation as well. And togas, of course, per Animal House….Wait. On second thought, perhaps that whole toga thing wouldn’t end well at a dude party. Might wanna skip that and stick to the basics: beer, woman’s nude manikin, Viking helmets, pizza and sub sandwiches, and….well, I’m not sure you need anything more than that!

Make sure every dude has one of these…

And hey, here’s something fun! Beer tasting, or maybe a blind “Name that beer” thingy. If nothing else, buy 15 different fancy schmancy beers (“Beers from around the world”), have plastic tasting cups available, tally up votes for the best beer, and start pourin’.
 
Horse shoe throwing is fun as is cornholing/bag throwing.
Beer is nice.
Music is almost always welcome.
Have a secondary plan if ti rains!
 
Making the participants ante up a giant sized box of diapers is a great idea. You can ask a recent mother amongst your group for advice as to what to buy. Word will get back to the bride and , your party will get less repercussions with the wimmenfolk. After you've been married 30 yrs or so we have less trouble with men only events. Wives are glad to get rid of us.
 
My little boy in 2.5 and in pull-ups now, im very well versed in diapers and formula, and of course how much this stuff cost.. big $$
