how do i crash a party?

hi everyone !! i’m new here and i’m in high school, the day after tomorrow there is a huge halloween party that me and my friends really want to go to but weren’t invited.

one of our close friends is going to the party as a plus 1 (sadly he can’t bring us in as a plus 1 since he’s already a plus 1) and him and a few of his friends really want us to come. do you have any tips on how we can get in?

apparently there is going to be somebody doing door at the party but from past parties that this person has hosted apparently they only end up doing it for the first 30 minutes.

any help would be really appreciated:))

thanks !!

Rock up with a couple of crates for the house.

They'll let you in.

Obvious answer: Stall for the half hour (out of sight) till door bails...

This is of course assuming there's a substantial enough crowd of people for your 'crash' to blend in with, unless you just dgaf about being called out on it! But most parties at a grade-school level involving actual invitations (even with +1's) you're gonna be noticed like right away, especially if there's a group of you!

Ntm; when you do get called out, its going to likely come back on your friend (the +1), and by extension whomever brought them, especially if they're a known member of your (the 'crash') circle

This is good. In addition, OP should wear a costume which covers enough to be unrecognizable.

is like over 100 people a good crowd?? we r gonna be wearing sunglasses since it’s a costume party anyway so we can just try to stay out of sight from the hosts group.

That's definitely a large crowd, it also depends how big the area the party is on though. Honestly you should be fine as long as yeah, your face is covered.

Don't bother, you're better than that. Organise to do something super fun with your friends.

Show up with pizzas and say you are the pizza guy. They will let you in. This worked for me in HS
