Keys to a successful college reunion - from the spouses point of view

My wife loves her alma mater. So much so, that we have been to 4 reunions in the last seven years. She graduated a year early and so is eligible to go to both her original class reunion and her graduating class reunion. We actually have a pretty good time. There is not too much "reunion type activity". Mostly just hanging out with friends and trying to entertain the kids. I have found the keys to success when accompanying your spouse to their reunion - bring wine and know the basketball coach! My wife is good friends with the basketball coach's wife so we get to see them each year. He has had 2 great seasons and therefore is in hot demand and so it is a lot of fun to be able to have a little quality time while everyone else is jockeying for position. As far as wine goes, the stuff they provide is pretty bad, so bring your own and everyone thinks you're a hero when you share. It's not hard to find a nice $15 bottle so bring a few and make a lot of friends because most people don't think to do that and they get there and realize how lousy the wine is and don't know what to do. Instant hit of the party.
