THE party to end all parties has ended a fizzer. Despite 72,000 RSVPs only a handful of bored teens turned up.

Unveiled as a hoax,"Kate's Birthday Party" was concocted by Adelaide internet prankster David Thorne, who has come under fire for risking the arrival of a riot-sized crowd in a quiet Adelaide street.

But the small group of teens and the three police officers who turned up failed to create the feared melee.

The officers were on standby at North St, Adelaide, from about 9pm, but left an hour later when the street became deserted.

Mr Thornecreated the hoax event last weekend on Facebook but it was later taken down.

However the demise of the original event has only spurred on its fans, who have created more than 500 extra pages in the spirit of "Kate's Party".

They included: "Is going to try to get with Kate at Kate's Party", "We met at Kate's Party", "Kate's party would have gone off" and "Where did all these Kate's party groups come from!?"

One teenager claimed he had created one of the Facebook groups and that he and his friends were hoping for a big attendance.

"We're just seeing how many people will come," he said.

The group left a few minutes before the police.
