What to do New Years eve?

[WuzzFuzz]

I think I'll stay home and let the amateur drunks be out and about.

There's got to be a reason some of the major trucking firms have their drivers shut down for the night.

Besides, I can't stay awake past 8 p.m anymore.

Get lit and partay!! Aha-ha-hah-haaaah!!

Just kidding. I'm in a dry country, no alcohols allowed.

 

[Ivan the Butcher]

The wife and I will probably share a bottle of nice wine with some goodies and go lights out around 10 PM, just like most nights!

A New Year's kiss is just as sweet at 7am as at Midnight, maybe even better!

I'm not a sports guy so during New Years Day, I'll be looking for a good Chess game or Risk tournament. If it isn't too bad of weather, go to club and Shoot Sporting Clays.

We always celebrate New Years with family.

Location says Vegas; about as dry as the ocean.......

 

[Old Arkansawyer]

I've always called new years eve amateur's night. We did go out new
years eve 2,000 just to prove the end of world people wrong, even
then, home at 10:30p.m.

 

[Mike SC Hunter]

Shoot some big guns off the front porch..........444-45/70-44mag.......Cheaper that fireworks.

I hope I can find the celebration in Mobile on TV this year. I love watching the big Moon Pie drop. Much classier than that NYC mob.

 

[The Big D]

The plan...

With only one exception in the last 15 years or so, I shall adjourn to my favourite watering hole circa 1600. There I will catch a bit of football on the tube whilst enjoying a few PBR's before heading home circa 2000. That's when those planning late night fun begin to arrive.

Once home, fix the big Caesar salad and bigger steak for sole consumption. Watch a bit of football and will be in bed before the ball (or Moon Pie) drops to herald the new year.

Works for me...YMMV.

Be safe.

 

[Golddollar]

I can't do anything to beat New Year's Eve in 2015. That's the day I retired (at 3:30 PM).

 

[Morgan88]

That moon pie thing sounds interesting. I will search that a bit and see what I have been missing

 

[WardenRoss]

This will be my first civilian New Years Eve in 31 years.

What a relief!


Pecked out on my iPhone in my draws.

My Wildlife Club has an annual beach walk where the Prez throws a sealed bottle containing wishes for the New Year in it into the ocean.
Then we go eat lunch somewhere, over by 1400.

Then, wife and I will coast through the evening with her enjoying just a little Moscato and I, the fruits of some Kentucky hollers.
If nothing decent is on TV, I may reload or tie flies.

Having worked a seemingly innumerable New Years Eves, I find the quiet very nice.
No wrestling drunks, no loud party calls where the drunk resident always wants to shake my hand, no domestics, etc. It's great....

 

[URIT]

I stay away from trouble by celebrating at home with my wife.

First, we have a nice dinner. This year it will be shrimp cocktail, followed by bacon wrapped center cut sirloins and several small sides. Later, a thin slice of chocolate cake with ice cream and homemade fudge sauce.

At 10 P.M., we watch the movie, After the Thin Man, which ends with about 5+ minutes before midnight. Then, we watch the ball drop and take in the neighbors' fireworks display and hit the sack.

 

[625-7]

I'd like to be along side Ivan smoking clays!

 

[snuffy51]

Stay home and watch the mess on TV. What ever you do for New Year, please be safe.

 

[HOUSTON RICK]

I will be with friends in the afternoon and home by 8 pm. The kids, wife and I will briefly celebrate when the ball drops in NY at 11 pm (our time) and hit the hay hoping for a better year.

 

[jag312]

My son and I will reminisce about New Years Eve, 2009. We were standing on the sidewalk in front of my house watching the firemen put out the fire on my roof. The little (expletive deleted) from across the street were celebrating New Years Eve by shooting illegal fireworks. One of their rockets landed on my roof. I thought many times of climbing onto their roof with a gallon of gasoline and setting their roof on fire. Such wonderful memories.

Shoot some big guns off the front porch..........444-45/70-44mag.......Cheaper that fireworks.

Thanks for the idea. 30-378 Weatherby Magnum , 45/70 SDT, & 44 Mag.

 

[TX-Dennis]

Just another day to me. Besides, I have to work at 6am on the first.

I am a party pooper, I suppose.

 

[Cellar Hound]

Happy New Year!!

My wife and I have a structured schedule for the evening....

1. Order pizza for dinner.
2. Go to bed early and set the alarm for 11:55pm.
3. Wake up and watch the ball drop.
4. Return to deep sleep by 12:05am.

The same as last year.

 

[walkin jack]

Take a couple of hits from the bottle of Crown Royal Black and a handful from the can of salted mixed nuts and in bed by 10:00 pm. After seeing 74 new years come...and go that is about all the celebrating I feel it deserves. I'm hopeful for a better year but not expecting any great improvements.

Still, I'm wishing and hoping for only the best for all my SnW family.

Whooo-Eeeeeeeee! Don't try that in Deer Park Texas. It would end very badly for you. A few years back a guy down the street from me walked out into the front yard, drunker than Cooter Brown. Fire his Remington 870 12 ga. up in the air, racked in another shell and fired that. Before he could get a 3rd shot off he had 2 cops sitting on his back pushing his face into the ground and 2 more pointing pistols at his head.

When it comes to firing guns (including BB guns) here....think 0 tolerance. And fireworks are almost as bad an idea. The city puts on an decent fireworks display and nobody gets hurt and nobody goes to jail.

 

[RSBH44]

Party poopers, the lot of ya. Mrs.RSBH44 and I will celebrate the coming of the New Year with our grown children and grandkids. At 8:00 or so they'll all leave and we'll settle down to watch a good movie together, snacking on a hors d' oeuvre that she makes every year from a childhood memory. At Midnight we'll wish each other a Happy New year , kiss G'nite and hit the sack. In the morning the kids and grandkids will return for a big family breakfast and we'll toast the New Year.

 

[jimmyj]

watch TV from the recliner and at 11:50pm go out on the deck and watch/listen to the neighborhood couples partying at midnight.

My wife passed in April, so I am learning to spend Holidays as a single person at home.

He's deployed right now.

My wife and I will probably stay home and watch the Vegas fireworks on TV.

 

[Old 44 Guy]

Just another Day, Just another year About 87 of them so far. No partying for me, can't drive at night so just stay home. Like the song says "You can't drink all day if you don't start early."

 

[pawngal]

Seems I'll be venturing out on NY eve for the 1st time in years. A girl friend called and wanted to go out for supper. Steak and lobster special, sad thing is I could probably make it better at home myself.

I'm sure you could but this way you have someone to cook for you and bring it to you and you don't have to wash dishes. There's something to be said for all that.
