Six classic dates that work well even with a twist or two.
Diner and a Movie – If there is one classic date night it has to be dinner and a movie. Now guys, you know the movie pretty much means “chick flick” but why not step up the dinner a bit and find a good diner, drive-in or dive to check out. Mom and Pop restaurants give you a down home feel that helps to relax you and your date. She’ll think your killer with style and nothings better than “winner, winner chicken dinner”.
Where Everybody Knows Your Name – Everyone has a friendly neighborhood tavern, their Cheers, and what a better place for that blind date, or just to hang out with friends. Live music or a jukebox and a few beers, maybe some dancing, you know you’ll have a good time. Between the darts and pool game wagers and don’t forget a few Patron shots thrown in and the evening might just lead to breakfast!
Root, Root, Root for the Home Team – Pro-ball, college or peewee you got to love scoring some points with your guy by getting involved in his favorite game. Tickets can be cheap if you look close and there’s always that beer and ballpark dog combo calling your name. Buy him some peanuts and Cracker Jack, sport your hometown ball cap or other garb and don’t forget the big foam finger…
Comedy Corner – Check out your local comedy network for the next Chris Rock or look into amateur night, but either way bring a smile and your funny bone. Get a great seat right up front and when the comedian asks questions of the audience make up a good story and play along. Don’t forget your two drink minimum by ordering the weirdest concoction you can image. Soon you’ll be uncontrollably laughing at each other.
Planetarium – Who doesn’t like staring up at the stars on a clear night in late autumn? Your local college or university observatory or Astronomy department’s refractor telescope is a great way to see the Milky Way up close. Study up on your Star Charts as a good way to seem more intelligent than you already know you are. You might even catch the man in the moon.
The Zoo – Lions and tigers and bears, oh my…We all love the fury creatures of the world and what better than a play date at the zoo. Whether you bring the kids or not, interaction with the smaller species in the petting zoo might tap some of those hidden animal instincts. Sit and relax while feeding the birds and spend a few hours debating on why getting a pet snake is not a good idea.
