HOW MANY PEOPLE DOES IT TAKE TO MAKE A PARTY?

A recent poll from online event site Eventbrite examined the social habits of different age groups and how they spend their social time. Here are some of the findings:
– How many people have to get together before it becomes a party? According to the survey, ten. Anything less is not a party.
– The average millennial or GenZer has three things on their social calendars in a typical week.
– Why do people like going out? About a third (29%) said it was for the free food and drinks. Another third (32%) do it for the potential of meeting someone.
– A quarter are motivated to show up to a competition, like a trivia night or game night, while 23 percent find themselves drawn to an event with a unique theme.
– Mostly, 73 percent like to go to events that allow them to explore their city, like an after-hours event at a zoo or a neighborhood bar crawl.
– The number one reason Americans avoid attending events: too tired.
* The number two reason: your sister-in-law’s there. Cripes, not her again.
* They should start throwing parties at the Sleep Number store.
* My main reason for going out? I don’t have to clean up.
* Do ten people make a party if it includes twins?
* You know how on the HGTV shows all those young couples say, “We need a big, big space for entertaining”? You’re idiots. The space is going to be used once, then you have a kid and no one comes over and it becomes the place where you store those exercise machines you’ll never use, either. (pause) Wow, was that out loud?
