BHP IX
1999: The Frying Pan, Chelsea, NYC

Marc boots his ex-boyfriend/co-host Alan, Aimee leaves for grad school, and Gigi and Bonnie finally succumb to angst and resign. Marc, Darryl, and Ian decide to reinvent the event on a larger scale.

Precious Memories:

Over 400 guests showed up for the party, held on a vintage World War II lightship that was decommissioned in 1963 and had sunk and been raised twice since, spending a combined seven years on the bottom.

Decorations included black spray-painted flowers and Clive Barker-esque tormented teddy bears. All of the horribly mutated teddy bears, including Rat Bear, Cannibal Bear, and Totally-Fucked-Up Bear, were lovingly adopted by caring party-goers before the end of the night.

The boat’s wheel house was renamed "The Head Room" after certain eponymous sexual acts were committed therein.

That woman pissing in the men’s urinal. Standing up.

The chaining and enslaving of several guests by a drunken host.

That couple who consummated in the subzero air of the parking lot.

That woman who passed out on the bathroom floor, and then, after more than two hours, got up, and went back to the bar for more.

And of course that woman who set her underwear on fire.
