YouTubeIt's my roommates birthday and he's turning 25. I am trying to figure out something fun to do for his birthday on Friday night with a group of people. We have already ruled out bowling. Anyone have any ideas?

All very good ideas. Thanks. The scavenger hunt sounds like a fun option.

The "Surprise Party Reversi" has always been a dream of mine.
How it would work: tell your friends that you are having a surprise party for your roommate. Invite them over to wait for your roommate to come through the door at 9 pm. At 8:59, you tell them to get ready because roommie is coming to the front door now. Everybody hushes. The lights are off. You count. 5... 4... 3... 2...
But then, in an unexpected twist, your roommate jumps out of the closet with a sparkler or flashlight or kazoo and shouts SURPRISE! Everybody is really confused for a minute, then they realize the joke's on them. You all drink sangria punch and play Twister or have a cupcake decorating contest. Pictures are taken, music is played, perhaps an ill-advised makeout session or two take place. But all in all, everybody goes home drunk and happy.
I DK, it's just an idea.

The scavenger hunt does sound pretty fun.
Maybe check out the current show at Shadowbox?
Or see who's playing the Funny Bone Friday night?
Check out the second show of Dirty Math through AVLT?
I think CATCO has a show Friday too...Funny Bone is fun for groups. Bring them a group and you will be on their mailing list for life. I'm still getting them. Mailing list = free tix!
p.s. quite a list Enzo! How long did that take you?

The scavenger hunts are ridiculously fun...make the list whatever you want and do it all by foot if someone lives in SN near the bars have that be the home base---everyone has an hour or 1.5 hours to complete---or just have everyone be on the same team
Make it super fun and have everyone dress in costumes and go out...who the heck cares what people think, it is soooo fun.

Might want to consider one or two things that are literally impossible to obtain; I did one once in Chicago where one of the items was a ticket for jaywalking. I walked back and forth in front of a policeman God knows how many times, and finally walked up and asked to be given a ticket... only to find out that jaywalking had been taken off of their ticket forms, so he couldn't give me one if he wanted to!! (An unused airline luggage tag was another one on the list. We asked politely -- this was before 9/11 -- and were told that possession of those carried a fine and jail time. That one was evil.)
We did succeed in obtaining a fixed-wing aircraft and an animal weighing over 2,000 pounds. But we had more than an hour and a half.
