I’m sorry that you haven’t known people with large houses and lots of friends of friends of friends.
You absolutely can throw a house party where you know you’re gonna need to buy a couple hundred cups.
And ideally, you’ll be playing Daft Punk Is Playing At My House at your house.

Selling the booze is a crime - selling the cups is not. Loophole!

Ahahah… yep, helped plan and host a few such uh, ‘events’, where we employed this extremely legal tactic.
That and ID checking. Still can’t legally serve a minor, even the booze is free.
