A “we’re getting old” thread

I was 2. Was real nto it. Had a ninja turtle come to my bday party at like 4 or 5.

Anybody else have the version that has the little league Pizza hut short? I remember that little jingle to this day.

ETA: nostalgia

2060 and 1980 are the same distance away from this point in time.

I play right field, it's important, you know? You gotta know how to catch. You gotta know how to throw. That's why I play in right field, way out where the dandelions grow.

Have not watched that tape in over 20 years.

I graduated HS in 1980

We had typewriters, not computers.

I still sing the right field song to this day. I coach a baseball team and it always pops in my head when right field comes up.

Don't feel bad. The movies that were very popular when I was a kid at the neighborhood theaters were the "Beach" movies with Annette Funicello and Frankie Avalon, Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis comedies, John Wayne westerns, Viking movies with Kirk Douglas and Tony Curtis, shorts with Laurel & Hardy, the Three Stooges, The Bowery Boys.

Got into the local neighborhood theater on Friday nights for a double feature and cartoons between them for a grand total of $.25 admission. If you went to the show with $1 you could get in and head to the concession stand to get a box of popcorn, a soda and a box of candy and still have a few nickels left over.

Damn .25 cents. I remember paying .50 cents for the matinee.

You are older than dirt!
