If I remember the tradition correctly, one is to get so drunk its
impossible to tell friends from enemies. Which goes back to the party
thrown by the king(name?) to save mordichi<best guess spelling> and
the rest of the Jews.
At my temple there was a carnival with games and prizes. And purim
nite was fun since they supplied noise makers to drown Haymen's name.
