How many are old enough to remember smoking areas in High School

I can remember both. There was no air conditioning in schools back then. We used to take peanut butter and jelly sandwiches because they would keep in a hot locker.

I can mostly remember the ashtrays on the airplane's armrest and people actually smoking during a flight. Also, ashtrays at airports, cars and at coffee tables at home.

Yep!

CHS 79-84
the smoking area was behind the gym close to the parking lot. Most kids carried a pocket knife every day and a shotgun in the rear window rack was common…we would leave for the day and go straight to the woods to squirrel hunt

BTW nobody I knew carried or even owned a handgun. I don’t think I even ever shot a handgun until after I graduated college, it just wasn’t a thing. You either had a 22 rifle or a shotgun

We smoked in the bathroom in the mid 90s

seems we have this exact thread pretty regularly now.


And yes, I'm old enough to remember both. Also remember the teachers lounge looking and smelling like a lounge at 2am cause all the teachers were burning heaters inside.

I only smoked fools like you on the bball court.

Or....And follow me here, Some people worked my arse off after school, weekends, and summers, and bought the cheapest POS farm truck i could afford.
