Having a Lost party for the big finale? Here are some ideas I’ve come up with or found online while planning my own party. I thought I would share in case anyone else is stuck…
- fake Oceanic boarding pass for everyone (these are really easy to Photoshop with your guests’ names)
- Rice Krispie treat 4-toed statue
- a cake shaped like the hatch computer or Black Rock or the hatch itself
- hanging a glow in the dark hatch map on the bathroom door
- having a disembodied hand that says “NOT PENNY’S BOAT” stuck to a sliding glass window
- giving out airplane-sized bottles of liquor and/or peanuts
- giving everyone lottery tickets with the numbers
- having the brainwashing video from Room 23 queued up on a computer
- playing only music that’s been on Lost or the OST itself
- any kind of polar bears – stuffed toys, plastic figurines, in cake or cupcake form, etc.
- get some KFC and cover the bucket with a Mr. Cluck’s label
- Dharma labels on EVERYTHING
- including a big Dharma logo on the front door (cover door with brown butcher paper, then paint Dharma logo – it will look like the hatch!)
- lots of Hawaiian food like pork, pineapple, mangoes, etc. (I HIGHLY recommend this recipe for Kalua Pig Nachos: Cisco’s Nachos Grande – this is SO GOOD and that pineapple salsa is redonkulous)
- Dharma food like ranch dressing, cereal, chili, etc.
- Apollo Bars
- Mai Tais, Pina Coladas, etc etc.
- scattering luggage/clothing around
- recreating the face of a Dharma van that people can stand behind and take pictures
- draping a silver tablecloth over some cylindrical and cutting out holes for windows to make part of the fuselage
- having tiki torches/fire pit
- making Fish Biscuits
- making Lost cupcakes
- make a Namaste New Recruits banner
- have everyone wear costumes of their favorite characters
- writing your guests names on a list, hang it on a wall and cross their names off as they arrive
- trivia contest
The possibilities are INFINITE! I’m sure you all have more ideas for your own parties – feel free to share!
I’m sure I’ll be posting photos of my party, and I hope you guys will show me pictures of your parties :D
