Diaper/Keg Party?

So what is this?  I got an invite from a friend (via FB) who is pregnant for their Diaper/Keg party.  In the wording, they are asking everyone to bring them a package of diapers for their baby (due in October) and they are providing the keg.  They gave a size range of diapers they want.

    It's like a shower for the mom to be but usually its for the Men! The guys all get together and drink, smoke cigars and bring a pack of diapers for the dad to be!!!

    I so want to do one of these for DH one day!!!

    Well, I'm old fashioned and I don't like the fact that they're throwing it for themselves AND asking people to bring gifts.

    That's how I feel.  I have no problem if they want to do a combination party, but the first sentence of an invitation shouldn't be bring me diapers in these sizes if you come to our party.

    That is kind of cute.  Invite probably should have come from a friend or something though.

    Usually the guys BF should throw it, or brother, someone other than themselves.

    Did the invite say anything that it was just for the guys???

    No, they don't even know my DH, it came to me on FB.  And you can tell from the replies that it's for us chickies too.

    They're throwing their OWN? Uh, no.

    Diaper and beer parties are very common down here. I've never been to one, neither has DH nor would we ever have our own.

    They want people to shell out money for the diapers, but they can't even spend money to print real invitations............
