"All these different cultures were intersected at the same time," Daniel Perez remembers. "Even if you weren't inserted into a certain cultural subgroup, you were comfortable being around them just because you were constantly within an arm's length of them.
"As a result of that, I wound up being not really in a clique -- I think a lot of people in the East were like that," he continued. "You would have friends who were preppies. You had friends who were pits. Then you might have had friends who had a whole grill of gold in their mouth, and then you had skaters, the BMX freestylers, the punk-rock dudes. All these guys, they all came to the same place. We were all there. We all saw each other, and we all rubbed off on each other."
80s mall culture was great. And when was the last time you heard someone referred to as a "Pit?"
