Seeing all these posts regardng music. What was your Jr & Sr Prom Theme? I was a rebel I guess. I did not go. No worse for it. I have no idea what the themes were.
What year did you attend Prom? Would have been 77 and 78.
Did you enjoy goin to Prom? N/A
Did you enjoy your date? My mom suggested a nice girl for me to ask to the prom. I loved my mom, then as now, but that pretty much made it certain I would not ask that girl.
What did you do? (Keep it clean)Limo, dinner etc.

What was your Jr & Sr Prom Theme? Too many to remember! I do remember one was something like "Gonna find love tonight" because my mother had a fit!
What year did you attend Prom? 1978, 1979, 1980, 1981 (First two were dates with seniors for their proms...do they count?)
Did you enjoy goin to Prom? Yes
Did you enjoy your date? First 2 years, yes, Year 3...Dan..he'd just broken up with Gina and asked me to make her jealous. He told me before dinner that he'd need to leave early since he and Gina were getting back together. I ordered the most expensive items on the menu...and "because I couldn't decide" that included two dinners and several deserts. I enjoyed the look on his face when the bill came quite a bit! Year 4, my ex husband. I enjoyed him then, now it would be torture
What did you do? (Keep it clean)Limo, dinner etc. Limo most years and dinner. Normally double dated. Went to the kegger (or whatever party was going on) as soon as the dance was over. One year our dinner reservations got messed up and we had to be on time for the prom (I was prom queen and the king was the young man in the other couple with us). We went to MacDonalds drive through in the limo. Arrived smelling like french fries That was probably my favorite prom memory.

What was your Jr & Sr Prom Theme? Would you believe "Back in Black"? What year did you attend Prom? 81 and 82 Did you enjoy goin to Prom? It wasn't as wonderful as I thought it was going to be. Pretty boring actually. Did you enjoy your date? I guess - no great love story or anything. What did you do? (Keep it clean)Limo, dinner etc. I grew up in a tiny little town with no restaurants that were open after 5:00 p.m., so we had a Jr/Sr Banquet and Prom. There are no limo's in this little town either, so our transportation was a farm pickup (very romantic! ).

What was your Jr & Sr Prom Theme? I don't remember the Jr. theme. The Sr. theme was "An Evening in Central Park" What year did you attend Prom? Senior Prom - 1971 Did you enjoy going to Prom? It was great! Did you enjoy your date? Yep, we had been dating almost a year, his prom (he went to a different school) was the night before mine! What did you do? (Keep it clean)Limo, dinner etc. Prom, after prom party, went to go to our favorite "spot" and fell asleep (remember this was 2 proms in 2 days!)...only to be awakened by the police!

Was not allowed to attend prom - wasn't allowed to dance. However it would have been '75 and '76. Our senior class song was: "Do you know where you're going to?"

Seeing all these posts regardng music. What was your Jr & Sr Prom Theme? Sr Prom - One More Night - the Phil Collins Song What year did you attend Prom? 1985 Did you enjoy goin to Prom? It was very stressful. Dinner took forever so we were late, stood in line for an hour for a picture, danced a few dances, and it was over Did you enjoy your date? At the time I thought she was great. We had dated for 6 months but 6 months after the prom she dumped me for one of my friends so I guess I was wrong. What did you do? (Keep it clean)Limo, dinner etc. Dinner was awful. After the prom it was straight to her house and straight home. I had a Jr. Drivers license so I had to be home by midnight (1 month away from my 18th birthday).
One more question, what did you wear? I wore a powder blue tux with a ruffled shirt (what a dork) and my date wore a pale yellow gown. Looking back (remember she dumped me later for one of my friends) it was a really bad color for her as well.

Seeing all these posts regardng music. What was your Jr & Sr Prom Theme? Junior theme was Lovers and Friends with the band called Country Class, that recorded the song. It was held at a Knights of Columbus Hall, with lots of hay bales to sit on. Senior theme was an Enchanted Ball, held at the country club.
What year did you attend Prom? 1981 and 1982
Did you enjoy goin to Prom? 1981 was great, 1982 was horrible. I had the same date to both (my now ex-husband). He was on crutches for the Senior prom. Had a little motorcycle accident running from the county sheriff. (what a moron!!!)
Did you enjoy your date? see above answer
What did you do? (Keep it clean)Limo, dinner etc. We traveled to and from in his Camero. The first year we went to an all night keg party after the prom. It was held at a classmates ranch, and they had a fishbowl that we had to drop our keys into as soon as we got there. Senior year, we went back to my house to change, and then were going to the same ranch, but he passed out on our couch. (too many pain killers). I went to the party without him and had a blast.

What was your Jr & Sr Prom Theme? Didn't go to JR. SR. was "Steppin Out in Style" What year did you attend Prom? 1995 Did you enjoy goin to Prom? Yes, I would love to re-live the moment Did you enjoy your date? Yes, went with a friend. What did you do? My Dad got a limo and we picked 2 other couples up at my friends, then proceeded to the prom. Ate dinner there, danced the night away. Stayed for the after-prom party, which was a blast and then went camping for the weekend. That is really the only part I regret. Everyone was out of control and the place was demolished.

Seeing all these posts regardng music. What was your Jr & Sr Prom Theme? We did not have Jr. proms and I am not sure about the Sr. prom. What year did you attend Prom? 1988 Did you enjoy goin to Prom? Yep! Did you enjoy your date? At the time! We were voted "Most likely to get married" so there was no surprise who my date was. What did you do? (Keep it clean)Limo, dinner etc. He picked me up in his mom's Mark IV. Many of us rented rooms on a floor at the hotel where the prom took place. Unfortunately the lights went out on our floor, except the emergency lights in the hallway, so we all ended up camping out in the hallway talking/drinking/laughing. What did we wear? I work a pink satin full length gown. He wore a grey tux with a pink cumberbun (sp?). Looking back it looked like we stepped out of a pastel war...but those were the days!

Seeing all these posts regardng music. What was your Jr & Sr Prom Theme? My junior year it was Back in Black and my senior year it was Stairway to Heaven
What year did you attend Prom? 1991 and 1992
Did you enjoy goin to Prom? I guess!
Did you enjoy your date? Not my junior year...My boyfriend dumped me a week before so I envited a sophomore who owned his own tux.
What did you do? (Keep it clean)Limo, dinner etc. My junior year I had to drive myself to the school. He met me there and was late, with NO flower. We both went to "project prom" at the YMCA after and on the way back to school the next morning he fell asleep on my shoulder and drooled! ICK!
What did we wear? I work a short green off the shoulder gown. He wore a black tux. You could tell in the pictures that we weren't exactly happy about the whole evening!

Jello wrestling at the YMCA? Were the extra 4 boys in your party the Village People?

Not the village people, but they certainly would have played the part! Small town, grew up with them K through 12. In fact, I just moved back after being gone for about 12 years and can't wait to start running into some familiar faces.

Senior prom was 1974, Seals and Croft "We Shall Never Pass This Way Again." I had my appendix out the week before, so most of my friends were watching out for me, afraid if I danced too hard, I would break the stitches. Yeah, right, like I am going to my LAST high school dance and not dance? Ha! I did have fun, but proms are anticlimactic. You prep and prep for it, and it's just another dance.
I had a curfew so we were home by midnight. I was already tiring of my date, who was my boyfriend of 2 years. He was too interested in alcohol for my liking. I mean, I like a drink once in a while, but he would always get disgustingly sloshed. Needless to say, he is history!

Theme- Stairway to Heaven Year- 1988 My date was my best friend (who was a guy) We took his Monte Carlo and had dinner with friends at decent chinese restaurant. I had a better time before and after the prom- Ma let us drink at the house if everyone stayed. We had an outdoor party under a tent at my house. It was Mike's Senior Prom. He was killed in a car accident the year after, so I'm glad we went together
I wore a BLACK lace dress which was taboo. Noone wore black to the prom. Mike looked handsome in black tails with pink cumberbund. I had the biggest 80s hair I could possibly have.
Thanks for making me remember. I'm leaving with a smile on my face.

Themes- I really don't remember. Both places were really nice. I went to a Christian private school, so we had a banquet rather than a prom. One of the things I remember most was that, at my senior "prom", a friend of mine played "November Rain" by Guns 'n' Roses on the piano. Year- 1996 and 1997 Enjoyed it?- Yes, I did. Enjoyed my date?- Absolutely, I took the same girl both years, she was my girlfriend. She was absolutely beautiful, too. What did we do?- Well, we had dinner there, so we didn't go out to dinner. No limo. My junior year, we watched a movie (sort of). My senior year, we went out with several of our friends afterwards. That's about it.
