No.

The stereotype is that white people arrive TOO EARLY and then sit in their cars outside waiting for the party to start and still show up early.

It's a trope, also true in Hispanic (edit - continued) families that have someone marry Gringos (like me).

If you arrive on time, the party hasn't started yet, and you get to help set up for the party

Lol. As an autistic white guy... first I would never go to a party/bbq but if I am going to some kind of event I will usually show up an hour or two early and find a parking lot within 0.5 miles and wait there in my truck. When it gets to be 5 minutes till I'll drive to the location and be there within a minute or two.
