October 21, 2003CONTEST: Best 30th Birthdays![]() While researching the book online, we often came across personal sites documenting the 30th birthday parties of regular folks. Some delighted us. Some terrified us. So, we started keeping a list. Herewith, our ratings (on a 1 to 10 scale) of the most rockin' 30th birthday parties, as chronicled in digital phtographic form on the Internet. (Got a submission? Drop us a line.) Trev Is Out of Control Something is wrong here. Very wrong. Grade: 1 Clay's 30th birthday at Bennihanas By definition, any 30th at Benihana is rockin'. Grade: 7. Simon Doak's 30th birthday Everyone looks happy. A little too happy. (Drugs must have been terrific!) Grade: 9. Bill's 30th Birthday Surprise Seriously scary on multiple levels. Memo to Miramax: here's your next Blair Witch phenomenon. Grade: N/A. Marla's 30th birthday and lobster boil The rarely-seen crustacean themed 30th. Now that's class. Grade: 6. Scotts Surprise 30th birthday party Rockin': jello shots. Not rockin': in-party web surfing. Grade: 3. Photos from Ryan's 30th Birthday Party "After tons of sushi, beer and sake we stepped across the street and took over a bar called Barnacles." Oh yeaaaah! Grade: 8. Julia's 30th Birthday Birthday girl loses points for appearing in every goddamn photo. Grade: 4. Sue's 30th Birthday Well, there's no doubt this dude was rockin'. Grade: 6. Steve's 30th birthday Crap party, but that's a rockin Spidey cake! Grade: 4. jellycan: My 30th birthday party Kubo breaks out his tambourine! A cute koala gets shot! Grade: 9. Martin's 30th birthday rager It's hard to capture the energy of this two-week bender in blog form, but let's just say, "The dance floor is not only for dancin'!" Grade: 10 Chris and Steve Do It Up Nothing says 30 like table shuffleboard. Can you find make-your-own sundaes/tacos and the mullet in the background? Good party elements both. Grade: 5.5 WINNER: Martin Reddy (with a perfect score of 10!) Turning Thirty [martinreddy.net] Posted by Lock in 30th Birthdays
