the party I've been planning WILL 99% get busted what do I do
Basically I'm throwing a party and I'm going all out. Maybe like 80 people. We all know the usual high school party ingredients but now I must say that two days before it's supposed to go down things have changed. Pretty much one of my dads friends lost his house so we built him an apartment in the basement, pretty nice place, my buddies and I assumed he would leave with my parents to go to a wedding or something but now he isn't. We've gotten into trouble before and my dads friend never ratted us out, and my dad even said it wouldn't be right for him to do so. But that was little things like smoking pot or ripping my golf cart around and messing stuff up. This is 80 people and a shit ton of weed and alcohol. You tell me, is it still worth a shot if all these people wanna come here? its too late to cancel on them it's happening tomorrow.

It is absolutely not too late to cancel.

but they're listening to every word I say
Worst case is cops busting the party and your Dad's friend doing time/fines for contributing to the delinquency of minors.
if you aren't 100% cool that the place you're at can host a party, don't host it. If it comes to that just turn people away at the door.
that's why we call it the struggle, you're supposed to sweat
Then again, I'd advice you to cancel even if your dad's friend wasn't around. Because it's your parents' house and you'll feel like shit for a very long time if things go wrong. I know because I threw that exact party once, complete with uninvited guests arriving, neighbors complaining, the police getting involved, and some of my mom's jewelry being stolen.

How about cutting out the middle man and just going down the police precinct to smoke pot and drink in the reception area? It will amount to the same thing. I can't believe anyone outside a teen sitcom would be so stupid.
My brother threw a party in high school once while the parents were out of town and he only invited maybe 10-15 people. But friends of friends started pouring in and it grew to 50-60. Brother wasn't even drinking or enjoying himself because he was so paranoid about trying to keep things under control with that many drunk teenagers in the house. Despite that, the neighbors noticed all the cars/noise, cops were called and brother got in serious shit including a fine, mandatory community service and got kicked off the varsity tennis team.
Not. Worth.

Don't shit where you eat. You want to throw a huge party? Find an outdoor venue. You want a smallish party of 10-15 friends, things are a bit better but still don't have alcohol you dolt. You will be reported and your future wrecked.
It means people could do whatever, not ruin a house and there was someone there in the event of an emergency. I admit it may not have been the best parenting, but usually it was just the parents understanding that kids are going to be kids, they'd rather mitigate the risks.
Don't trash a house. You legitimately have no concept of how hard it is to earn money or pay for things. Don't be disrespectful to people who are willing to let you stay in the place alone.
I don't understand "too late to cancel". Like, too late for what? What is going to happen if you tell everybody, "It's off"? Are you going to be ostracized by your friends? If so, your friends are shit and you should get new ones. High school is one tiny part of your life; I know when you're in the thick of it it seems like being a social pariah is the worst thing to ever happen to you, but there is so much more to life than high school.
Cancel the party. High school social acceptance is not worth the fallout, mess, and possibly criminal record you will be inflicting on yourself and others.
