They were the years of getting my ass wooped literally both at home and school
Teachers had their own excaliburs for students that forgot to do their homework or dozed off etc
Discipline was strict but quite effective id say
Soccer was a big hit back then as well
Spent most of my time in the arcades and remember some coin licking delinquents stealing money from me
Omg. This reminds me of a local arcade I frequented as a juvenile.
It was a nickel arcade! Attended many birthday parties and even had my first date there!
Many games were free play or just .05¢

Or the popular full prices arcade pizzeria, Mr. Gatti's.
