The OLCC’s “How To Throw A Party”

December 14, 2010 By Jay Brooks

olcc
The Oregon Liquor Control Commission (OLCC) has produced a couple of PSA videos about safe drinking during the holiday season. The latest, How To Throw A Party is hilarious. With wonderfully cheesy music, faux grainy 8mm school film quality, and purposely groovy language it manages to get across a relatively good message about safe drinking over the holidays and even includes some decent party tips. Enjoy.

A week earlier, the OLCC debuted Safe Oregon Holidays. While not quite as retro as How To Throw A Party, it does still include a few gems.

Not to be snarky, but I especially love the designated driver … on horseback. Are they suggesting that’s how she’ll transport her drunk friends home?

    Hey, we saw a cowboy get arrested for drunk riding (not sure how he got back on that horse) in the Tetons last summer.

    I’m surprised the OLCC has time to do these fun things. I thought they were busy ruining homebrewing in Oregon.

    Proud to be an Oregonian! With presumably safe streets on the holidays…

    I have a t-shirt with a drunk cowboy slumped on his horse and a dog in the saddle handling the reins.

    Also, years ago we were at the Lebec Brewery north of the Grapevine when a cowboy came in and checked his gun at the bar. When we left his (we assumed) horse was hitched to a rail in the parking lot.

    I like the idea of having a taxi fare fund….

    Normally we plan our night outs near the Light Rail in Phoenix… or use the lend-a-friend-your-couch method…
