So, you want to have a party that will make you a legend among family, friends or even strangers. You want people to say, “Dude, great party! I’m going to tell my children and then my grand kids about this awesome event that you have bestowed upon me and my fellow partygoers.”

Okay, you get the idea. But where do you start? The answer is throw a “Theme Party.” It is a great way to tag or identify your party to make it stand out from the weekly barbeque, and it will certainly be the topic of conversation come Monday morning at work.

Here is an idea for costumes and a party theme. Why not go prehistoric? That’s right, caveman and cavewoman costumes. Could you imagine your family and friends dressed as one of the Flintstone characters or like Raquel Welch from the movie “One Million Years B.C.” or how about the Geico cavemen, Captain Caveman or their own prehistoric creations? There is a lot of leeway and prehistoric costumes are very cheap. The cool thing is when you buy a caveman costume you get to keep it and use it again for another occasion, such as Halloween, a play, that video you been wanting to make or just sitting around watching TV.

Cave people didn’t use plates. That is probably true. But for your gala it might be a good idea to have plates. If you go full prehistoric, the guacamole might be hard to get out of your carpet. Party goods and supplies such as plates with an “Ice Age” theme could add to the experience.

Prehistoric movies could enhance the mood by being displayed on your big screen. Movies like “Caveman” with Ringo Starr and Shelley Long, “Quest for Fire” with Ron Perlman and Rae Dawn Chong, “Valley of the Gwangi” with James Franciscus, or “Clan of the Cave Bear” with Daryl Hannah. There is a plethora of classic prehistoric movies that you can select for this purpose.

How about playing a prehistoric game. You can play party games like re-enacting the invention of music, a scene from the movie “Caveman” or “Pin the tale on the woolly mammoth” or “Caveman karaoke” or “Who’s that caveman in the closet?” Of course, this game might prompt your 10-year-old to ask, “Why is Uncle Harry dressed as Raquel Welch from the movie “One Million Years B.C.’?” There are also games such as Dino-opoly or video games such as Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs for Wii to keep the kids busy.

Name your food such as caveman surprise, bronto burgers, dino dogs or fried pterodactyl just to add a bit of pizzaz to the menu.

To sum things up. A party theme is fun. It gives your guests something to remember and talk about for years to come, not to mention the pictures and the videos that will appear on the World Wide Web, so let your imagination go wild.
