It's when a bunch of people gather in a single location, and play games together. These can be on small scales, like 5-10 people in a small building, or a large event with hundreds to thousands of people.

A keg party... You buy beer in kegs, sell glasses and drink until it's gone.

That is just not true. A more accurate statement would be "It is a party where your less likely to run into women". Many chicks play games and I have seen many LAN party picks with women. There are just far less then men.

Why not? A LAN party is to get together and play video games... It's a much different kind of party then a "regular" party. Do you never just get together with male friends and play video games? I cannot think of a much better way to do so then to attend a LAN party.
