Mumsnetters please prove my DH wrong - ideas please!!

[SilverLining]

Please help me! My DH has to arrange his annual boys weekend away and he needs a theme for the Saturday night! I've tried my best but he poo poos everything I say so eventually I said I bet Mumsnet can come up with something! Previous years have had 70s pop stars, James Bond, 80s break dancers - you get the picture! Any thoughts??? Please!!! Thanks in advance!

wrestling!

Gangsters?

super heros?

Dead rock stars

Film villains

Sporting legends

I second wrestling...proper WWF from the late 80's/early 90's

Or classic computer game heroes...Mario, Donkey Kong, Street Fighter etc

Wrestling sounds good.

Female actresses?

star wars

Famous people who share your first name - always a winner

Computer game heroes is genius

Oh fab everyone - thanks so much!! Will propose your ideas - watch this space......!!! Thankyou!!!

Like that one Folk - will remember that.

Ooh 'famous people who share your first name' would be a nightmare for me. Can only think of a radio 4 presenter:)

What about choosing a letter and having to fancy-dress in something beginning with that letter? (have heard of 'P' parties for example, where people come as pimps, priests, popstars, pineapples?!). 'Where's Wally?' also seems a popular fancy-dress theme at the moment too...

scooby doo

Sporting legends (we have done that and had everything from Jocky Wilson to Shergar)
Pirates
Posh totty

Hanna Barbera cartoons

Drag queens

Alter ego?
Childhood ambitions?
Not sure if it would work as well for this situation but a friend had a fancy dress party and the theme was shipwrecked - boys bought cheap suits and ripped them/generally trashed them, or wore armbands and life jackets/made little skirts out of bits of sacking (and novelty coconut bras of course).

dress as an adjective? it's hard to theme the rest of the party, though..

I like the letter idea.

or (boringly) a beach party?
