LMAO we had one in Harrisonburg when I was a kid. Been there,done that and got the teeshirt

cassidyta · 11-07-08, 04:13 PM

I would like to say that none of these are me. I did have the denim suit with helmet hair photo from the early 70's

And mine was taken in Harrisonburg JMartin

flbassman · 11-07-08, 04:20 PM

I almost died laughing. Unfortunately, I'm sure I'll look back one day and go, "I wore that? No way, I was cool."

My highschool yearbook photo would be at home on that page. I had longer hair that didnt part well.

My parents dressed me in the 70's. I have no excuse for the big hair, parachute pants, and checkerboard sneakers I wore in the 80's though.

lowrider · 11-07-08, 05:58 PM

parachute pants, i just had a flashback. radical dude.

Bo Dale James Jr. · 11-07-08, 06:03 PM

That was hilarious...In 1972, I had red bell bottoms with the blue pockets to my ever lasting shame...

Oh yeah and in the 80's that long strand of ratty @$$ hair...

I can't go on....
