Pre-Game Essentials
Share
Let's be real—some of the best moments of any night out happen before you even leave the house. The pre-game is where inside jokes are born, dance moves are perfected, and the energy builds for an unforgettable night. Whether you're hitting up the hottest club or heading to an underground concert, mastering the pre-game can elevate an ordinary night to legendary status.
Why Pre-Games Are the Real MVP
Think about your most memorable nights out—they probably started with an amazing pre-game. It's those magical hours where excitement grows, friends gather, and the possibilities for the night feel endless. The pre-game sets the vibe. Nail it, and you're set for an epic night.
Pre-games are also where you can actually hear each other talk, snap those fire group photos while everyone looks fresh, and hype each other up before diving into the main event. It’s the perfect time to catch up, build energy, and get everyone in the right mindset.
Drinks That Get the Party Started
The key to an awesome pre-game? Options. Stock up on classic mixers and fun THC-infused beverages to create a DIY drink station where everyone can channel their inner mixologist. Nothing gets the creativity flowing like crafting your own concoction.
Pro Tip: Keep water handy—not to sound like your mom, but hydration is the secret to lasting through an epic night. Plus, you'll want to remember all the hilarious moments.
Snacks That Keep You in the Game
Hungry friends are hangry friends—no one wants that vibe at their pre-game. Set up a snack station worthy of a food influencer:
- A loaded charcuterie board
- Quick sliders for grab-and-go bites
- Shareable finger foods that keep the conversation flowing
Good snacks keep the energy up and make you the MVP when late-night munchies strike.
The Ultimate Pre-Game Playlist
Music makes or breaks the vibe. Start with chill beats as people arrive, then build the energy until your living room becomes a mini dance floor.
Create a collaborative playlist and let friends add their faves. Watching someone light up when their song plays? Priceless. By the end, everyone should feel like they’re already at the club—just with better lighting for Instagram.
Games That Get the Squad Hyped
Pre-game activities turn "hanging out" into "ready to take on the world." Try these:
- Quick Hit Games: Icebreakers like "Most Likely To" or "Never Have I Ever" always lead to unexpected laughs and stories.
- Dance Battles: Clear some space and let people show off their moves (while coordination is still intact). These moments make for hilarious videos later.
- Photo Challenges: Think "best squad pose," "most dramatic solo shot," or "recreate your favorite album cover." These are gold for tomorrow's group chat.
Making Memories That Last
Pre-games often outshine the main event. They’re where the best stories are made, friendships deepen, and the night’s energy takes shape. Take pictures while everyone’s still fresh, but don’t get so caught up documenting that you miss the moment.
Keep some essentials on hand for last-minute fashion fixes, organize the ride situation early, and set a loose departure time—though let’s be real, sometimes the pre-game is too good to leave on schedule.
The Grand Finale
A legendary night out is all about the build-up. The pre-game sets the vibe, aligns the squad, and creates memories before the main event. Keep the energy high, the drinks flowing (responsibly), and the playlist on point.
Whether you make it to your destination or the pre-game becomes the main event (it happens), you’ve already won if the squad’s together and the vibes are right.
Now go forth and pre-game like a pro—your night depends on it! 🎉
