Have no interest to. We moved to a different town when I was in high school and I went somewhere different for the last two years and graduated there. I didn't like anyone there and didn't really talk to anyone there, so I have no interest in it. The only people from that school I've talked to since graduating were a couple of the teachers I had.

That’s pretty weird. You are either really successful or dirt poor. I went to 15 year get together for homecoming. I missed the 20 year homecoming get together but there’s usually a reunion around this time. I may have missed it. Not a big deal to me. If I don’t have anything going on I’ll go but it isn’t a priority.

I do.

Just had my 10 year one a year ago. It gives us another reason to get together, enjoy each others company, and drink a lot. Might not be the most popular opinion, but I like school reunions and the people in my class.

Haven’t been to any. Actually just realized after reading this thread, my 30th should be this year. (Class of ‘92)

Pretty much all of the ones I respected don’t go to reunions either


My HS graduating class was like 500? We had a fb page. It seems the only ones who went to our reunion peaked in HS and nothing could beat it. Not college, not their adult life, nothing. Not even athletes who went on to be successful in life went. It’s just for those who can’t find a better future.

This is all coming from a millennial. I’m sure older generations who don’t know how to use a computer may rely on these events more to judge their life.

Didn't go to our 20th, but it was at Ard's house and Denny's band was our entertainment.

Wouldn't be too interested unless i could take a few of those heifers and steal away in the back before returning to the party.

Went to the 10 year and it was a blast. Was on vacation when the 20 year happened. Both were real solid turnouts. Class of ‘99 we had about 320-330. Both reunions turned out just over a 100. A lot of drinking and having fun.

My class has mostly aged well. Some of the girls look way better at 40 then at 18.

I graduated in 1996. i went to my 10th, my 20th and 25th last year. I think it is therapeutic to go. I disliked a good majority of the people that I grew up with in a small town but it is amazing how everyone converges towards the same goals in life over time. You find you have much more in common than you ever know.

I went to my 5 and 10 year reunions despite almost none of the people with whom I actually hung out with in hs going to them. I had a blast at both, and will certainly go to the 20th.

I went to my 30th, the only one I’ve gone to, but it was really a treat to see everyone again as quite a few moved away a long time back and I hadn’t seen them since HS. My 40th is coming up as well. I am looking forward to it.

At my 10th reunion I made a bet with another guy to see who could sleep with more people from our class going forward. It’s a real soccer match.

Went to my 30th last year. I honestly despised most of them on high school, but 30 years changed 99% of us. Maybe 3 or 4 people were still assholish.
**also found out that we’ve lost two people to lethal injection over the years**

It all comes back around and goes down at the reunion. Our 10 year had it all, one girls husband (he was the spouse And didn’t attend our school) started grinding on a chick on the dance floor then felt up her skirt and his wife flipped said chick was a homewrecker (turned our old baw been cheating was all put on Facebook a few months later lol) One dude got blackout drunk and fell down the stairs of the venue. My Former ex got into argument with my GF over some nonsense. One chick who was married started making out with her ex boyfriend while her husband (an Aggie) looked on disbelief.
That’s just a few of many many stories

I only got to my HS town for weddings and funerals. It’s not a guarantee I will make it though.
