Graduated high school that year. Everything was red, white, and blue. It got old fast.


This hurts
You were 18 and you should have appreciated the celebration more than anyone else on this thread.
But all these years later you came here to say that "Everything was red white and blue and those colors got old fast".
You voted for Obama didn't you.

No doubt their are some whacko leftist like that Illian Omar and her co-horts that actively HATE America - but those who wrap themselves is the flag yet espouse views that are contrary to what America stands for are just as bad!!!

I remember my grandmother used to get so upset anytime she’d see someone in an article of clothing that was patterned after the flag.

You baws don't know what a blessing 1976 was. 'Murica was celebrated by both the left and the right! Sure there were some hippy boomers but they were too busy smoking pot to bother the rest of us.

As a third-grader in 1976, if you had one of these, that was pretty cool.

If you find “America 250” over the top, you’d have straight up lost your mind in 1976.

Wally World had paper plates that said “United States 1776-2026” as if it were a funeral.

Dark blue, red & white pinstripes.
Small 250th badges.

A 250 for the 250th.
