Here’s the shocking amount of damages that the average British stag party runs up

We’ve all been on a particularly messy stag-do.

You know the type – you wake up upside-down in a foreign hotel, unsure how you got there, before stumbling out for a fry-up and to attempt to piece together the previous night.

According to a poll from VoucherCodesPro.co.uk, British men are left nursing more than just a nasty hangover from these nights out, with the average damages topping £2,000.

Some 61% of the 2,239 British men over the age of 18 who were surveyed agreed damage caused during the course of a stag-do was the most common cause of extra costs, while 53% had experience of forking out extra to attend to injuries suffered by members of the stag party.

More than two thirds of those polled admitted ‘incidents’ had occurred, contributing to an average additional expenditure of £2,345.

Three quarters of the incidents occurred in foreign countries – not doing much to dispel those ‘Brits abroad’ stereotypes.
