Keys & Locks Party At party, a male participant will be handed out a randomly selected key while the ladies will each get a lock. The idea is for the guys to work through the crowd of girls, trying out every lock in search of the one that will be opened by his key. Although successfully opening a hidden lock seems to be the name of the game, the underlying objective is to meet new people, armed with the valid excuse of needing to find the right lock.
