Bachelor Party Blues

So one of my oldest buddies is getting married in a couple months. I'm really happy for him. She's a great girl and they're well suited for one another.

Here's my beef. His pals from university are planning the bachelor party. In Montreal. We all live in Halifax. This isn't the first 'destination bachelor party' I've been invited to/attended.

When did bachelor parties become four day events requiring airline tickets and hotel suites? Whatever happened to a bunch of beer, poker, and a stripper?

I have a limited amount of vacation time and funds, and to be perfectly honest I'd rather use it on a trip with my girl. But I'd like to see my buddy off in style. What's a guy to do?—Party Pooper
