Homecoming (or what happens when Danny gets bored)

The year is 2009 and it's homecoming time at my daughter's high school. She's was a freshman at the time and  just became friends with a new group of girls. So as dances, proms and other social events are done in today's world, 2 things occur.
   The first thing is that most kids theses days go to dances like it's fantasy football. The boys don't ask out individual girls but they organize groups with matching up couples and friends helping other friends out. Some of these kid's dates are complete strangers. Go figure. The second thing is that in today's world, Homecoming, Prom and  Turnabout(Sadie Hawkin's Dance for you old folks) have become such over the top events that they range from small Bar Mitzvah to Princess Diana's wedding..Crazy. What happened to going to the dance and nice dinner..Not today.  Limos, $200 dinners, staying overnight somewhere and just general over the top behavior is the norm.
  OK, back to my daughter's homecoming. She's in a new group of friends(which by the way, she wasn't friends with these girls 2 months later) that have figured out this year's homecoming roster. My daughter is going with a boy she really doesn't know but that's par for the course. So the weekend arrives and of course, there is a pre-Homecoming Dance get together at the house of the Queen Bee of the girls. This get together is for pictures and hors d'oeuvres. Basically, this is to document the night via pictures that will be on FACEBOOK 3 minutes after they are taken to show the world what a great time and how cool everyone is. My wife and I show up at this person's house with my wife's famous taco dip (easily the best food item my wife makes with her banana bread a close 2nd). So we enter this house and it's like a bad business cocktail party. My daughter is hanging with the girls and the boys are all standing in a corner. Meanwhile, my wife and I are making small talk with people we just met. I actually enjoy meeting new people but these people were BORING!!!  Brutally boring. Well, what happens when Danny gets bored? He finds the need to entertain himself and that's usually at the expense of some unexpected soul.
    So, I'm walking around and my opportunity hits me smack in the face. Most of the parents are in the kitchen and it just so happens that the 7 boys of this gala event are standing in the kitchen also. Another interesting thing is one of the dads is standing with these 7 boys. The boys are dressed in standard teenage boy dance attire. Light Blue Oxford shirt and khaki pants(change the shirt to a red polo and they all look like they work for Office Max). The dad standing by these boys, is also wearing a light blue oxford shirt and khaki pants. This is a layup for me. So there is a break in conversation and awkward silence in the room. I decide to move in for the kill. I walk up to the dad and the 7 boys and say to the dad, "Hey, did you guys get a deal at the clothing shop? You buy 7 little outfits and get the big one free?" My wife laughed and the rest of the crowd was dead silent. The dad I busted on really didn't appreciate being lumped with the fashion style of 14 year old boys. Tough crowd.  It also probably wasn't good that the guy I goofed on my daughter's date's father. At that point my wife and I quietly left the house with our Taco Dip(no one touched that or any of the food that we were instructed to bring) and ate it for dinner. It ended up that my daughter had a nice time and I continued to consecutive streak of pissing someone off at every social function I attend
