Watching original episodes of:

The Best of 1966 Batman/Bruce Wayne - YouTube

and

Star Trek: The Original Series - First Episode Opening (The Man Trap) - YouTube

Cellphones? Hahahaha.... No.

Cable? That was how we connected the rabbit ears to the TV for reception.

I could go on, but I'm really starting to feel my age and I need a nap...

Damn it, this guy's almost as old as me, LOL.

Best I ever did was silver one year I think. I always thought the loser ones looked the best anyway (if I am remembering correctly) :fuckthatshit:

Zedbra 07-03-2013 05:34 PM

^ Oh I remember those as well. Silver was my best as well.

fliptuner 07-03-2013 05:38 PM

I don't remember the loser ones being handed out....I remember this one kid on my class always getting this little card that said he "participated", lol.

Maybe those cards were after the black patch?

I only ever got silver...would get gold at most of the testing areas (sit-ups, etc) but would SUCK at the running.
