Alternatives to the same 'ol bachelor party

I know there are some guys that want the ‘traditional’ bachelor party and there’s nothing wrong with that. However, I would like to share with you some alternatives that I'm sure your future bride would love for you to consider.

If you want to have a sophisticated night, then consider these locations:
Brandy Library – This is where the perfect dram of top-shelf libation is for serious drinkers of fine spirits. Their selection is mind-blowing as the bookshelves are stocked with bottles and the sommeliers will help you re-fine your taste buds or at least help you pick out something almost as special as your fiancée.

If you enjoy a good cigar and are looking for a place where you can still smoke:
Carnegie Club – The club has retro wood paneling, and is truly one of the last sanctuaries where you can legally enjoy a smoke. Yes it’s a lounge, but its also a great place just to have a drink with the boys and a good stoggie.

Club Macanudo is another haven of leather chairs and big cigars. Martini, scotch and cigar drinkers unite. A bit more formal than Carnegie, so wear a jacket and experience the moment.

For the sports lover or lover of games:
ESPN Zone - Nothing could be sweeter than the big lounge chair, in your private room watching your favorite team playing your favorite sport. Food, beer and hours of fun. Sounds like a ideal party to me.

If you are looking for sports and a bit of hip-hop flavor:
40/40 Club – This club is the platinum taste of co-owner Jay-Z where there are lots of flat screen TVs, and the perfect cognac lounge upstairs for your private party. You never know what celeb may just pop-in to see where the party’s at.

If you want to be a cowboy in the big city:
Johnny Utah’s – Once you have a few, you can make your way to the mechanical bull. Try your best to ride it or just hang out with some good food, good beer, and good friends.
