Best Parties To Crash

Allston Party Crashing

Party crashers are generally unwelcome in, say, ol' stick-in-the-arse Beacon Hill, but not in a student ghetto like ALLSTON, where dropping in uninvited is the norm — and has practically morphed into a contact sport. To find one of Allston's keggers, dress preppyish and preferably in black or white, so you look like a frat guy/sorority girl on your way to a black/white/toga/popped-collar party (yes, those are all real themes). Take the B line to Packard's Corner any Friday or Saturday around 10 pm, join a group of tipsy college students, shadow them for a minute or two, and then high-five somebody and follow them to their party. If you get cornered, say James invited you, and if James says he doesn't know you, look hurt and tell him you had writing together freshman year — he ain't gonna remember.
