Motocross Parties Are Easy

Tuesday, May 1, 2007

There are few ways to keep motocross fans away from the sport so it's best to just give in and theme their parties in motocross paper party supplies. That being said what are the best decorations and indoor games for such a party?

Motocross has just as many familiar names and brands to supply team logos as any other sport so that's a starting point. Motocross has no specific season as with basketball and football so any current season's fresh foods and flowers will do nicely. A ""Hare Scrambles"" race theme will make a good cake decoration. The characteristic dirt tracks can be depicted with crumbled chocolate cookies and plastic dirt bikes can go squirrelly on the turns. Cake icing can build spectators and write names and best wishes in contrasting colors.

Small motocross fans will enjoy playing outdoors while adults may prefer to watch motocross. The sports network could be a good source but DVD's and prerecorded meets will be more likely to supply an afternoon's entertainment. If the date and time of a scheduled party does coincide with a live motocross broadcast then this is an obvious choice for amusement. Nothing compares to the excitement of a live broadcast of the sport.

Let them eat cake! And let them eat spinach dip with dried bread cubes and let them eat meats piled high on platters. Go all out with party trays whenever a sport is the entertainment because the excitement will make everyone hungry. It will also tend to make the party longer and meals will be missed otherwise.

There's probably little point in using anything other than paper party goods for the Motocross theme. The good china is clearly better left for a less rowdy crowd and clean up is as simple as taking out the trash.
