Field Parties have gone on since the dawn of time.  The main reason that they held field parties in the early years was because not everyone had a house and if they did they couldn't get more that 5 or 6 people in it.  (I deducted this logic all by myself)  So today Redneks all across the land continue to carry on this tradition.  Some of the main reasons field parties are great are
1.  The cops don't have vehicles that can make it to most of the places you have the parties.
2.  Normally in a big enough field they aren't any houses close enough to be disturbed so they can call the cops.
3.  Bonfires.  Nothing is better than A bunch of drunk guys playing with fire.
4.  If the cops do come you can usually see them from a good enough distance that you can grab your beer and run.
5.  There usually isn't anything that can be broke or destroyed in a field.

How to have a successful field party.  First off you need a field (Therefore the term Field Party).  Then you need lots of beer or shine.  Personally I like to plow out a place "so the grass doesn't catch of fire" known as the pit.  This is where the bonfire goes.   Next you need something to burn.  I have found out that pallets work best.   Now most of the people I know just drive around until they see some laying behind a building and it never fails that those pallets will jump in the back of the truck as they drive by to look at them.  Next you need seating.  Square bales of hay work best.  Or just let everyone park their trucks around the fire and sit of the tailgates.  Ok now you have the makings of a field party.  Oh yeah you need to invite some people.  Generally if you want a small party tell only the people you want there.  If you want to throw a real hum dinger tell a couple of people that there is going to be free beer.  Then everyone will show up.  Now some people might be pissed at first because there isn't any free beer, but they will get over it.   Another great thing is have a live band.  All you need is a generator and wala, you have juice for the amps.  A flatbed hay trailer will usually work fine as a stage.

Drinks for a Field Party
What you need:
A large 50 gallon tub
(Not Styrofoam, This drink will eat through the styrofoam)
1 bottle solid grain diesel (its liquor, not gas)
Items that may be subbed for grain diesel are Golden Grain, Everclear, Moonshine
1-3 bottle(s) cheap Vodka
1-2 bottle(s) cheap whisky
5 cans of kool-aide mix
A LOT OF WATER

What to do:
Dump the Kool-aide mix into the tub. Next, fill the tub  almost to the top with water. Stir. Now add all the liquor. CAUTION: Solid Grain Diesel is not something to play around with - it is extremely flammable because it is 190 proof - DO NOT DRINK THIS FROM THE BOTTLE AND DO NOT ADD A SECOND BOTTLE TO THE TUB. Now depending on your mood and the mood of the crowd, add 1 to 3 bottles of vodka. You can add more than 1 bottle of vodka because vodka is normally clear and will not stay in your system that long. Whisky on the other hand will stay in your system longer. The idea of this drink is for everyone to drink it and not taste that much of anything. If you follow the recipe carefully, the drink should taste a lot like water but it should also be red from the Kool-aide mix. You should also not be able to taste the alcohol either. This will confuse people and cause them to drink more so that when they do finally feel the alcohol kick in they are too trashed to do anything except act like the village idiot. Trust me, if you did this right, your party will get extremely crazy.

A couple things to watch for:
MAKE SURE THAT THE MUSIC FITS THE CROWD. I've found that drunk people get more angry than sober people when crappy music is being played.
DON'T BRING PETS. This is just common sense. You don't know what could happen to your animal when you get a bunch of drunk redneks going.  MAKE DAMN SURE NO ONE THAT GETS DRUNK DRIVES. Either sleep in your car or get a designated driver. A good idea is to have some type of bowl and everyone drop their keys in it and then the bowl put up till they are sober enough to drive.  Designate a upchuck area.  Once everyone gets to drinkin it won't be long till someone starts blowing chunks.
