Fun idea for a LOTR surprise party:
Wait until the lucky person is eating dinner on the special day
Show up at their house unannounced and greet them with “[your name], at your service” and just walk up in there and join them for dinner.
Have your friends show up one by one or in pairs and do the same (works best with at least 13 people, obviously).
Once seemingly everyone’s there and your friend is appropriately overjoyed yet horrified because they weren’t prepared to host guests, there’ll be a knock at the door and all of you will fall silent while one of you ominously says “he is here”, opening the door to reveal the final guest who should arrive with pizzas and/or cake.
Congratulations, you now have an actual Unexpected Party.
(P.S. Cosplay is not mandatory but highly recommended)
(P.P.S. At some point, you should all break out into song without warning, preferably to “That’s What Bilbo Baggins Hates”)
nikk-elli I vow to either do this for you, or with you.
I would literally cry of this happen to me lol cause I’m lame
