The Cupparty!!


New Jersey. That’s where my friends and I went to celebrate Nick’s brother’s birthday. Unfortunately, he died of heart failure nine years ago. Turns out, his family hosts a huge party at their house every year in his memory. They invite all their friends, family, and neighbors, but don’t worry – it’s no funeral. They had a bartender (plenty of alcohol!) and got a DJ to play music for the party. There were a lot of older people, but it was to be expected since they invited everyone, including grandma and grandpa


They have their own tiki bar. wtf.

Nick was my roomate last year who I told you tried to get into NY Fashion Week. He made it, but was caught by security five minutes in and was almost fined and jailed for doing so. Thankfully, he is still with us today.

The dancefloor lit up


Party people!

The man dancing on the right was Nick's dad, who hosted this party. He partied harder than all of us college kids, dragging unwilling people onto the dancefloor and challenging everyone who was willing to a game of beer pong. By the end of the night he was undefeated. He also called all of us "wusses" for not partying as hard as he did -- and rightfully so.

It was a good night with the Cupparis. Plus, they had a ton of Italian food which I took advantage of.
