  • Play the hits of 2003

    Build the playlist from the year's biggest songs: "In Da Club," "Get Busy," "Crazy in Love," "Unwell" and "Bring Me to Life." Keep Avril Lavigne's "I'm With You" for the whole room to sing together.

    Play the opening bars of a hit and let teams buzz in with the title and the artist. Anyone who can sing the following line earns an extra point.

  • A 2003 movie night

    Hand the guest of honor the remote and let them choose: Finding Nemo, Pirates of the Caribbean, Elf or The Matrix Reloaded. Serve popcorn and keep a ballot box for favorite scenes.

  • The 99-cent playlist

    Give each guest an imaginary dollar and ask them to choose the one song they would have bought on iTunes in 2003. Play the winners back to back.
