I won the "Best Dressed Hobo" award. :D I guess that would go in the redneck category.

IMO.... a redneck and a kicker are two completely different things!!!

[BuffyMars]

Why must we generalize people and take away their individuality?

That sounds far too much like communism for my tastes.

All these jocks are now sadly trying to re-live their youth through today's players

That sounds far too much like communism for my tastes. actually marketing relies on generalizing people to a segment of society. ;)

[DDBooger]

My HS was actually pretty great, everyone got along. Gothic was kind of starting out, but no emo yet.

Oh no, never are "we"generalizing people. They are being allowed to generalize themselves!!!:D

in reference to music, but never bothered to
google it.

Which time? :p And no, it was for threatening to PUNCH Band Nerds!



And :tmi:








;)

[LH Panther Mom]

Oh, and since you didn't make it multiple choice.....


Band Nerd and Basketball Bench Warmer (mostly) and also ran track......UIL number sense & spellling.


Kickers or grits, "hippies", jocks and geeks in my school. Of course, the geeks carried slide rules. :p

[OldBison75]

I played all sports in school and was generally involved in alot of academic groups. Success wise, I was a better student thatn student athlete. I did perform place kicking duties in football, and was a four year starter at catcher in baseball. Basketball was not my sport and I generally played so that the starters had someone to make a fool of in practice. In track I ran the mile run.

I saw that someone above used the bench warmer title---well, except for baseball, I generally played that coveted position of left out.

Of course. I went to high school before redneck was a common term and I had long hair and bell bottom pants but loved country music. I also worked cows, hauled hay and watermelons.

I guess since freak was not listed, I'm other.

[BaseballUmp]

anyone willing to fess up to being the "stoner" lol there are 4 of you atleast lol

So should we add a category for moderators that dated guys with a van? :)

[Ranger Mom]

I was a cheerleader one year...but that didn't fit into any of categories. I didn't even like football back then, and sre wouldn't have dated anyone from my own school!!:eek: :eek:

Oh yeah....I didn't even know anyone who drove a van!:hand:

[lostaussie]

when I went to school I don't think "goth" was even a word:doh:

I dated (and married) the "dude with the van" in high school. you'll can figure out which group I was in :p That van was "tricked out" :)

We didnt' have girls athetics when I was in school. I was in the very first drill team @ Cuero High (Trotters) when I was a Sophomore. We didn't have a class period - we practiced @ 6:15 AM before school each morning. Those bus trips to the 44 games in a row were MEMORABLE ;) Between Trotters, FTA and "the van" I was a busy girl. (actually, the "van" was sold shortly after we started dating - something about my daddy and a shotgun - I never got the entire story) :p :p

Yea you could say that. But not a full membership.

[IHStangFan]

I voted other......I'm lettered in Track, Basketball, I was a band nerd, I was on the home coming court, I was a motocross junkie after school, I was a gear head, I hung out on the beach and surfed on weekends, I was a tad redneck, we drag raced on the back road almost every sat. night........I cannot be classified or pinned into one demographic!! I'm a social shape shifter!! :D :cool: :devil:

[Johnny Utah]

I went to Pampa high school for a little while. Very diverse, Kicker Corner, Soul City etc.. I played Basketball so we were in that clique. The hs I graduated from most of our graduating class was very close, most were playing sports so that is who we hung with. If I had lived in a coastal town I would have been a SURFER DUDE!!

[IrishTex]

I voted "other".

I was the class clown and loved to make people laugh.

I wasn't athletic but I was a sports fan.
I wasn't rich, so I hung out on the corner of Neff and Canfil streets in Sweetwater and drank alot.
I certainly wasn't good looking, so I played in a garage band.

In spite of all of my short comings...I still loved high school.

[DDBooger]

jock and getting in trouble

I didn't learn to read until after I graduated :D :cool:

[CHS_CG]

I was more of a drifter, I voted band nerd since I was in band and color guard but I was friends with preps and jocks and other band nerds and even some offbeat people.

I did a lot of stuff, band, color guard, worked concession stand, stu co, FCCLA etc. had a job that I worked 30-35 hrs a week and kept a's and b's in school.. I wonder when I slept!

[Old Cardinal]

Played Baseball--first base....Led the county in batting average-- Senior year.
-
Football--Played mostly Right Guard and on defense Middle Linebacker(Monster)...Actually played in the first game BC had when I was a Freshman.

Track--ran halfmile & mile.

Even played on the boys HS Volleyball team which we had back then

Swimming, water skiing(in it's infancy LOL) & shrimping.
Working on an ole '49 flat-head Ford.

Worked at a store that had an ice house.

[Farmersfan]

I guess I was considered a nerd. My best friend was a Mexican named Pedro. I got him elected as student body president because of my dancing skills. My older brother Kip had a legacy in the school that I could never live up to and forget about getting close to the accomplishments of my uncle Rico...........................

[big daddy russ]

I didn't see a category for "Dungeons and Dragons Grand Wizard," so I picked "Other."

I'm the dude with the van now, 78 Chevy with a stroker motor. Oh, and bed in the back...lol

[skins4life]

Football 2 years
band 2 years
Baseball 2 years
After that I went off the deep end. Started acting like my dad and working all the time, mostly at home while he was earning the money to pay the bills.
Let's see, I was hay-hauler, maze cutter, calf brander, pig puller, sheep shearer, bull rider and hoof clipper. Oh yea, I drank a little, dipped a lot and smoked a few (you pick 'um).
