….Stags are a Stupid Ritual
1. The groom-to-be always usually ends up getting really drunk way too early in the evening, which means he doesn’t get to enjoy that much of the stag - unless you consider staggering and slurring as fun.
2. For the most part, there is usually vomiting and alcohol poisoning involved, which means it takes days to recover. This is not particularly smart given there tends to be several pre-wedding social events where you need to be at full mental capacity to impress relatives and friends….and your bride-to-be.
3. For some inexplicable reason, stags usually involve strippers. Bad, bad, bad. Why you would want to celebrate your impending wedding by going to see a strange naked women dance badly is downright weird. And someone - usually the best man - has to plunk down far too money for this sordid entertainment - money that could be used to buy beer and steak, for example.
4. Stags are always all-guys, boys-night-out affairs, which tend to be a lot of fun. After you’re married, getting together with the boys on a Saturday night to drink many beers gets more challenging to pull off so why remind yourself of what’s to come by having a stag.
