I wasn’t born yet (88) but for those of you who were around in 1984, where were you? What was your life like? Please share some of your memories from that year.

I specifically picked this year because, in a thread I did awhile back here on the OT, many of you said that 1984 was the best year of the 80’s. 1984 was also 40 years ago, so I thought it would be appropriate also to pick that year in this regard.

If I told you about my 1984, it would be a downer for the thread.

I was 7 and went to World’s Fair also. I remember this section across river with bumper boats and stuff catered to kids.

Saturday morning cartoons, seasonal soccer, basketball, and baseball leagues, playing Atari, my Frogger game on watch (helped pass time on bus, and riding bikes with friends in neighborhood.

i was 18 and had just started college and yep, we went to the NOLA World's Fair but I was at the age where it was awkward being around my parents.

damn i'd give anything to have a few minutes back with my dad. why are we such awful people when we're teenagers?
