I’m so old I can remember when

[IronEagle]

AI stood for Allen Iverson.

You got any?

[JB]

BWAH good one....everytime I see an article with AI that's the first thing I think of...I'm so old I remember as a youngster seeing an Eagle game at Franklin Field

[Dim Bulb]

my only entertainment options were channels 3, 6 and 10.

[Drama Queen]

… I remember Overbrook telling stories of him going to Overbrook before they had a history class.

[RSE]

When they said the Mass in Latin every Sunday.

Phone numbers on TV ads were something like ...Murray Hill 6-7520

[The Duck]

When you'd get ten bucks from the Mac machine, get your tank filled with regular unleaded (you had to specify), buy a pack of smokes, and still have some change to make a call at a Bell of Pennsylvania payphone.

I remember when 50 yard field goals were an accomplishment.

[Overbrook]

… I remember Overbrook telling stories of him going to Overbrook before they had a history class.

I can remember Drama Queen regaling us with his tales of swimming in the Crystal River with the manatees and having sex with (a male) one.

Also, going to bed with a transistor radio and falling asleep to the dulcet tones of Byrum Saam as the Phillies lost yet another game.

Boy, the way Glenn Miller played
songs that made the hit parade
Guys like me we had it made
Those were the days
Didn't need no welfare state
ev'rybody pulled his weight
gee our old LaSalle ran great
Those were the days
And you knew who you were then
girls were girls and men were men
Mister we could use a man like Herbert Hoover again
People seemed to be content
fifty dollars paid the rent
freaks were in a circus tent
Those were the days
Take a little Sunday spin
go to watch the Dodgers win
Have yourself a dandy day
that cost you under a fin
Hair was short and skirts were long
Kate Smith really sold a song
I don't know just what went wrong
those were the days

[Riccardo]

Watching Sally Starr, Gene London, Wee Willie Weber and Happy (not really) the Clown. Don't mention the horrifying puppet that still haunts my nightmares...
