If you aren’t going
to Prom this year, don’t sit around and eat ice cream, go out and do something!
Below are some fun ideas you can either
do with a group or alone on Prom Night:
- · Go out to eat: Remember to wait until after Prom starts, and it shouldn’t be as busy.
- · Catch a movie: The long awaited sequel of The Amazing Spider-Man comes out the night before Prom night, on May 2. The Amazing Spider-Man 2 will feature Peter Parker battling super villains, sent by Oscorp, while trying to keep his relationships intact. Another movie coming out close to Prom night is Brick Mansions, based in dystopian Detroit, brick mansions are home to dangerous drug lords. The movie is also the final fully completed film starring Paul Walker, who plays Damien Collier, an undercover cop in the film. Brick Mansions comes out April 25.
- · Go bowling: Buffalo Lanes in Cary offers a price of $4.50 a game from 6:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m. Saturday night. But if you get there at 10:30 p.m., you can bowl as much as you want for $10 a person until 1:00 a.m., when Buffalo Lanes closes.
- · Go late night golfing: Knight’s Play Golf Center is offering green fees for nine holes at $10 with a golf cart rental of $5 and a green fee for eighteen holes at $15 with a golf cart rental of $10. If you’re not up to going on the course, go to the driving range and practice your line drives until midnight.
- · Go to a concert: Philadelphia rockers Daryl Hall and John Oates (Hall & Oates) will be at Walnut Creek Amphitheatre starting at 7:00 p.m. on Prom night. Tickets are on sale now starting at $69. Classic rock not your style? Shame on you.
- · Take the SAT: What a great excuse, right? “Guys I can’t go to Prom because I’m going to be exhausted from the SAT”, but in reality you’ll be sitting around, eating junk, and watching American Horror Story, perfect.
Skipping out on
Prom doesn’t mean you’re missing all the fun, so don’t sit around and cry
because you couldn’t find a date, go out and make some memories, stay safe, and
watch out for couples.
