If The Founding Fathers Had A 4th Of July Party

How the Founding Fathers would throw a Fourth of July banger.

Fourth of July— the holiday where we can embrace everything that is truly American. We celebrate our independence by swimming, lighting stuff on fire, chanting "USA, USA, USA" all while getting drunk, grilling every food we can imagine and basically wearing our flag as every article of clothing on our bodies.

Our Founding Fathers probably had no idea that gaining our freedom and becoming one fo the most powerful countries in the world would be the reason for some of the most lit parties to ever happen.

Here's how the Founding Fathers would throw a banger like it was 1776:

George Washington: The Host

He led his men across the Delaware River and he led America as the first president, so naturally, he would be the one hosting this crazy bash. He was never one for political parties, but that's not to say he wouldn't be up for throwing this kind of banger. Odds are he might even be sporting some American flag swim trunks.

John Adams: The People Pleaser

While George may be the host, every good host has a friend helping them out. John Adams would most likely be spending his time doing the behind the scenes stuff while George is greeting his guests. Need more burgers for the grill? Running out of America flag fruit skewers? Need to refill the coolers with more beer? John's got you covered.

Thomas Jefferson and James Madison: The Drinking Game Champs


This dynamic duo would be looking for party goers to play endless rounds of beer pong and flip cup, only to annihilate you. Apart they might be seen as a little arrogant but put them together and you'll see that they just want to have some fun.

Alexander Hamilton: The Party Animal

Alexander Hamilton is without a doubt the wild card of the Founding Fathers. Young and bold, Alexander would be the life of the party. He would be the one in control of the aux cord and he would definitely be one encouraging people to dance and just let go. Alexander would be the one to keep the party alive. Also, he would definitely be up to taking some shots; I heard he never throws them away.

Benjamin Franklin: The Pyrotechnic


When the sun goes down and everyone is feeling their share of the alcohol, Benjamin Franklin would definitely be the one in charge of the fireworks. Forget sparklers and cheap fireworks, he would definitely be going for the big guns so that everyone on the block knows whose party is the most ~fire~ let's be real.

John Hancock: The Blacked-Out One



John Hancock was the first to sign the Declaration of Independence, so naturally, he would be the first to black out. There is no one at that party who is stopping him from having "one more" drink, and before you know it, he's making some more bold choices.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
