So fun it should be illegal
Looking for a fun bachelorette alternative, or a great anniversary date? I got your poison, right here….
Last year we were in NYC for Hunter’s birthday, and partook in the experience that is Accomplice: The Show. This interactive scavenger hunt game/theatre/tour of the city was one of my most memorable NY experiences of all time. Mysterious, Silly, Quirky, Sexy and most of all, FUN. We basically got to pretend to be undercover “accomplices” to a mob heist/getaway… we met up with informants, delivered “packages”, and did fun detective work to get us from drop point to drop point.
If you liked “where in the world is carmen sandiego” then this will tickle your inner detective fancy juuuuust right. Heck, we did it in a torrential deluge of rain and still had the time of our lives. See?
Yes, we are wearing trash bags that we stole from NYC public trash bins. No shame.
Thus, I am so thrilled to get an emailing announcing that not only did they recently start up an Accomplice: Hollywood experience, but that they’re offering a recession special of $40/ticket!
Now, I know you’re all “$40? That’s a special price?!?”, but know this: The whole shebang normally costs $65. It lasts a 2.5 hours, and includes a few delightful stops along the way that involve light food and beverages of the adult kind, as well as a good afternoon’s worth of walk-ercise and loads of fun characters to interact with. Its worth. every. penny.
I kissed a frog, on the way to deliver it to an informant!
This type of experience just screams Bachelorette Party to me. What could be better than a bunch of rambunctious women combing the town, aiding and abetting clandestine criminals? I mean, really. Stupid fun. Just don’t get caught by the fuzz, or you’ll be sleeping with the fishes, yo. I wish my birthday was next week so I could gather a crew and do it here. I can’t wait to see what the Hollywood experience has to offer, but I promise to report back when I finally find out.
Accomplice has 2 shows in NYC, and one in LA – but their site says to stay tuned for SanFran, Las Vegas and London locations. Fun, franchised! PS: Use discount code “SAMMY” when purchasing – discount good through July 14.
*this is not a paid ad, just a broke-ass service announcement, yo.
This looks like so much fun!
LOL that looks awesome!
That is so awesome..Hmmm since its a recession, might be a good idea to have this in kansas city..am so envious.
That does look like fun! In the sam vein you may want to check out the great urban race. It's a city wide scavenger hunt and they have events all over the US.
Anyone who refers to Where in the World is Carmen San Diego is awesome in my book!
I didn't know you did this!!!!! I've been wanting to do it so bad!
YES, YES, YES!!! I did Accomplice NYC when I lived there and LOVED it so much that I dragged my mom and brother to opening day of Accomplice Hollywood! IT WAS AWESOME!!! And since we were the first group to ever complete it, Neil Patrick Harris (Doogie Howser or Barney) met us at the end (he produced Accomplice Hollywood). It REALLY is a blast! You just reminded me that I need to post our pics to follow up on my post about it! Great minds think alike =)xoxo

That looks SO fun! I do feel sad for the froggy in a bag though
I hope that frog didn't suffocate in there!!
I sooo wanted to do this when I was in NYC… what a wicked price too!! Gotta love recession-proof fun! Speaking of $$ saving ideas, I have a coupon for inkubook that I would love to invite your readers over to take advantage of… it would be amazing if you could do a quick post to point them in my direction! I know your readers are budget conscious just like me, and if I can save them a few bucks in their wedding planning, that would be great! Here's the link to the coupon: http://brideonpurpose.blogspot.com/2009/07/discount-inkubooks-for-bride-on-purpose.html
