I hope he kept the receipt for the scanner.

Let me guess: Cellpwned?

The raid led to the arrest of nine minors in possession of alcohol and six people on charges of procuring alcohol to minors, including the hosts of the party, 22-year-old Christopher Phalen and 19-year-old Cassandra Phalen.

More like Chris and Cassie Failin', amirite?

"Failin', amirite?"

Mennonite? I don't think they were.

Inside the hosts had done their best to hide any evidence of a party from mom and dad as furniture was moved into another room, paintings were pulled off the wall and the carpets covered.

I found this pretty considerate of the kids.

Yeah, that's real considerate. They could just, you know, not invite a massive amount of people over to their parents house. Seriously though, a 22 year old is throwing a party at his parents house? What a lame biatch.

These two idiots are making the rest of my generation look bad.

I found this pretty CYA on their part. Not nearly enough of it, evidently.

Fifteen people were arrested Sunday morning after authorities invited themselves to what was advertised on the Internet as a "History Making House Party" in Sarpy County.

You're doing it wrong.

If that's "history making", my birthday party was "apocalyptic".

And here the cops come to make life miserable for everybody... Why can't it be like it was 30 years ago..

/very disappointed in the youth of today

Okay who hasn't thrown a party at their folks house in absence of said folks - or been to a similar party?

Anything get broken? Puked on? Stolen?

/yeah, 22, that is sorta weak...maybe he was just visiting...

And this belongs on the Geek tab because?

Then why not throw the party at his place? Also, they're probably lucky the cops showed up before the "estimated 600 people" showed up, I remember reading an article on fark awhile back where a party advertised on facebook turned insane quick and the people farked shiat up.

I haven't, because I'm not an inconsiderate dumbass. It's not my house, it's my father's, and he doesn't want parties being thrown there. I also don't go to those retarded kinds of parties, because I don't tend to enjoy jailtime for being implicated in procuring for minors.

That's 1.

Why is it called a 'house' party? Why not just 'party?'

I have many questions like this.

In following up with it, we started observing a lot of minors on the Facebook that had replied back

"the Facebook". That's how you know this dude is really old.

Yep, I was baffled at the logic involved in advertising a house party on Facebook. Amusing as hell.

As an IU student that just watched Little 500 come to a close, I am unimpressed.

Thank god these criminals were brought to justice. Finally, sweet vindication for their victims.

Epiphany: Seriously though, a 22 year old is throwing a party at his parents house? What a lame biatch.

I know a guy like that. He dropped out of law school and since then (12+ years) he has been unemployed and living off an allowance from his dad in an apartment. Every summer when his folks go away for two weeks he takes up residence in their house and tries to throw parties (because they have a pool, tennis court, etc.) He even nicknames the house "Club D" after his last initial.

I thought the same exact thing. Could be a lyric in a Neil Diamond song or something.

serial_crusher: "the Facebook". That's how you know this dude is really old.

I still call it "the Facebook," but that's because I started using it back in '04 when it actually was "the Facebook."

Well, it makes sense. Cops are always finding out about crimes because someone posts a video on The YouTube.

Uh, okay. You plan to actually keep a running tally? As if that is somehow going to empirically prove you're right?

You sound young.

I'm only going to say this once children... Stop doing stupid shiat

Shrugging Atlas: Why is it called a 'house' party? Why not just 'party?'

I have many questions like this.

that implies that partying goes on in every room of the house and out in the yard as well. a plain ol' party usually is confined to the living room, dining room, and kitchen.

Facebook is a great way to organize a party.

All you have to do is mark it "private".

FormlessOne: Yep, I was baffled at the logic involved in advertising a house party on Facebook. Amusing as hell.

Hey! I've thrown some pretty good parties at my neighbors houses when they were on vacation. Usually one of the first dozen people to show up figures out how to get inside.

Back in my day we used e mail, you whippersnappers.

Pointing out the common sense that its just a tool and can be used for things both good and bad? Does not compute! Isn't he supposed to fear-monger about how the internet is the devil that will corrupt your children?

Props to Lt. Zeeb

I remember the Nixon presidency.

I was only commenting how nice it was for the kids to move the furniture and cover the carpets.

Of course they were dumbasses for advertising on (the) Facebook, but as Epiphany mentioned, there have been home wrecking house party stories on Fark before - and I would bet that many Farkers have either hosted or been to similar.

I don't know why but this is the first thing that went through my mind when I pictured the party host (to the tune of the stadium tecnho-rawk staple Get Ready for This [Radio Mix]...

Durr! Durr!
Duh-Durr-Durr-Durr!

AWWWWW YOUR WEDDDY FOR THAAAAAAAIIIIIISSSSSSSSS!?!!!!

Why Omaha*? Why?

*On a related note I currently live in the house that is the site of the largest MIP bust in the city's history. The house shows it too...

/"Is that a shadow?"
//"No, it's just paint and plaster covering a 7-foot vertical hole in our living room wall."

Disapproves:

Could there be block parties about which I don't know?
Maybe they're in neighbourhoods where I don't go.
Could there be all these parties down some little lane
With potato chips sitting there and guitars playing?
We need more parties in the USA.

Inside the hosts had done their best to hide any evidence of a party from mom and dad as furniture was moved into another room, paintings were pulled off the wall and the carpets covered.

Actually, that's more like avoiding the creation of evidence in the first place. And while preventing the creation of evidence is the most fundamentally sound single way to make sure no evidence remains afterward, wxboy is right that the hosts' efforts to avoid the creation of evidence were far from comprehensive.

I'll bet you that he gets arrested for having sex with a minor. He sounds like one of those types.

This gives me an idea.
1. Set up fake party.
2. Make sure local PD knows about it.
3. Sue PD after they bust down my door.
4. Profit.

OK, I'll give you the scanner, but the terms "house party" and "Facebook" just don't fit with my vision of geek.

Anyone else notice this creepy guy on the left side of the page?

Wait!

It advertised 6 kegs of beer, but only 5 were confiscated?

A law enforcement professional with his head not up his ass who has taken the time to research the problem before making sweeping judgments? I'm sure it happens all the time, but still...

When will these kids learn? If it's on the internet, it's PUBLIC to practically the entire world.

I hope these kids arn't the ones in charge of paying for my social security in 30 years.

Yeah 600 random people. They are lucky the cops ended it early. The cost of the damage to that place would of been epic, even after they put away all the stuff. Unless they had security people there.

Yes, I have actually been to house parties with security, I have been to some VERY large house parties. And once you go beyond "A friend of a friend", you can get in a lot of trouble. Don't go beyond the 2 degrees of separation.
