Backside Staff • Nov 11, 2016

Nothing brings a bus group together like dressing up and getting into character. Consider some of these ideas for your ski trip and ensure a memorable experience for your crew!

  1. Cowboys
  2. 2. Superheroes/Supervillains that Didn’t Make it Big
  3. 1970s Olympics
  4. 1980s Prom
  5. Polka Dots
  6. Crazy Headgear/Hats
  7. Obscure Sports Athletes (have you SEEN chicken boxing on ESPN 8 "The OCHO”?)
  8. Pajama Party
  9. Toga Party
  10. Cops and robbers
  11. Pirates and mermaids (or wenches)
  12. Mardi Gras
  13. Trailer park theme
  14. That 70s party (everybody dresses up in their 1970s outfit)
  15. Let’s get wiggy with it (bring your craziest wig to wear all night)
  16. Viking Mania – put on your war horns and be prepared to rape and pillage… the hill
  17. Wig and shades party (If you don't have a wig - you should!) Or whatever, wear a hat – it’s all about the fun.
  18. Buckles and Belts (sport your favorite, and funkiest belts / buckles) 
  19. Bring your Bling! (Let's see your most lavish accessories, fake rolex's, fat gold chains, and heaps of ghetto rings - costume jewelry)
  20. Tacky T-shirt/Sweater party. (For those shirts/sweaters you shouldn't wear in public - but really want to!) You know the one you just don't have the heart to throw away because the cookie monster knitted on the front is just too irresistible.
  21. Pirate theme, plunder with bandanas on and enjoy an evening of grub and grogs, give our pirate guests the opportunity to win some booty (the prize kind), with some games.
  22. Luau, to relate to the B-side theme with the thongs, some lei's and thongs, mmmmmm sounds sexy!
  23. Hawaiian
  24. Cavemen (bring your club in case you need to mate)
  25. Truckers (bring your club in case you need to mate – ha!)
  26. Mobsters
  27. Gender-switch
  28. Crazy Ball Caps
  29. Rockstars
  30. Beauty Queens gone bad (I saw a group do this at Halloween one year, it was hilarious) 
  31. ABC (Anything But Clothes)
  32. Hutterites and Concubines
  33. Pioneers (Discover a new world)
  34. 1950s Rock Around the Clock
  35. Backwards Party (everyone has to wear their clothes backwards and all the events of the evening are done backwards as well - an example would be: at a party, the cake would be served first with everything else to follow)
  36. Pimps & Ho’s
  37. A Cruise Ship theme…Of course the Senior tour guide would have to be outfitted with a captains Hat and costume
  38. Ugly Christmas Sweaters
  39. Hollywood theme- I found this pretty cool website that gave some great decoration ideas and we could buy some Plastic martini glasses to use for drinks!
  40. James Bond (or James Bondage)
  41. Parka (Patio) Party
  42. Blast From the Past (Anything that resembles the past)
  43. IceAge/Icebreaker
  44. Trailer Trash/Ghetto Boys
  45. Come as your aren’t (Be someone else for a day)
  46. Old school cartoon characters (y’know… He-man, ninja turtles, care bears… the possibilities are endless)
  47. Mario Bros (We think this is just cuz we wanna dress up like Princess Peach in a big pink dress and see someone in Red overalls haha)
  48. Lumberjacks and Curlers (What can I say, gotta go for the true Canuck theme here)
  49. Sports fan theme – people dress in their favourite team’s jersey or t-shirt or whatever other type of paraphernalia – could coincide with whatever team/sport is playing that night or weekend.
  50. Dress up like an infamous celebrity.
  51. Wine and cheese party – everyone brings a wine or cheese and crackers to share (sounds a bit boring, but who doesn’t like wine and cheese?…aside from the lactose intolerant I guess, and it gets people talking when sharing).
  52. Tarts & Vickers (aka Hookers and Priests)
  53. Pilots and Flight Attendants
  54. Where are they now celebs (Celebs we don’t here about much anymore, ie Urkel, Cheech n Chong)
  55. What does the future bring? (Clothes that will be in style in the future)
  56. What my mom made me wear? (Still have that ugly sweater or sailor suit)
  57. Born in a small town
  58. God bless Texas (celebrating nasty cowboy things and big hair)
  59. “Rhymes with Funk”(I’ve seem Punk, Monk, Trunk, Ka-Plunk, Junk (our personal fav), Stunk, and still to see: Dunk, Any onomatopoeia with the ending unk)
  60. Initial Ingenuity - The idea of initial ingenuity is that you have to take your initials, aka Tim Coats would dress up with something or someone with the same lettering, … ala Tom Cruise.
  61. Doctors and Nurses. Everyone wears scrubs and or medical paraphernalia.
  62. Kid Costume Theme. Everyone wears kids Halloween costumes that are ridiculously too small, and have been altered or customized in some way to make them fit.
  63. Cheesy Ties (and of course, great shirts to go with)
  64. Redneck
  65. Mullets
  66. Creative T-Shirts (“I’m kind of a big deal”)
  67. Las Vegas- Eg. Mobsters, dice, show girls, Elton John, be creative
  68. Tight, bright, neon lights
  69. Dodgeballers (come as a team)
  70. Golf Pros & Tennis Whoe’s
  71. Anchorman (New suits!)
  72. Super Troopers (Littering and….)
  73. White Out! (only white clothing head to toe)
  74. Clash of the Titans (wear clothing that doesn’t match… army helmet, football jersey, and a skirt… or do those match?)
  75. Suit Up (extremely professional business attire only)
