Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire School dances - which guy were you ?

Never went, working and holding a job was more important than that chit.

Lol, I worked all through high school. Still had plenty of time for girls, dances, sports, keggers, bonfires, and good friends.

Never went and didn't care.

Dancing was not allowed on school property.

Did everybody cut footloose?

I bunny hopped and disco danced my young life away.

In our smallish town, we had cotillion. Pretty much all the kids were there to learn to dance.

Then in high school, we went to rodeo dances. We figured out the advantage to dancing with the girls...

Then learned ballroom dancing as an adult.

Hanco is right about the women and dancing and sex thing.

While all the gristle head guys were wanting to get drunk, or fight at the dances, I was sober, dancing with the girls and getting more than a guy had a right to.

I was the guy all the girls WANTED to go with...………………...but I generally chose to not go because there was usually some serious hunting to be done the next morning and I didn't wanna be tired for what was REALLY important.

We always had dances after home games...was a great money maker for the school. I usually went. Take a quick shower after the game, walk from the fieldhouse to the gym. I'd dance, sometimes have a date who'd get the slow dances but most weren't to clingy. Would be pretty tired after games so I'd spend a fair amount of time just sitting and shooting the bull as well. Had a lot of fun and got in a lot of trouble. Me and 5 of the guys I graduated and played ball with still get together several times a year....we were tight then and have been all out lives.

I was the guy singing in the band....

I lost my girlfriend to a damned drunk driver when I was 16. I took it very hard and never went to another school dance again.

Only went to the prom. Had to be at work @ 7 am the next morning. Then totaled my '68 Buick Skylark GS coming home from returning my tux to the rental place that afternoon.

I always had a steady girlfriend and went with them. I was a real dork.

If I had it to do over again I woulda banged every hot chick available.

Youth is wasted on the young...

It's I was quiet, and didn't like school.

I never set foot on school property unless I was legally required.
Graduated 6/1/87, next time I visited school property was in 2007,
to enroll my daughter in kindergarten.

So, I wasn't there, was busy working one of a couple jobs, or hunting/fishing.

Looking back, I didn't miss much.

Same here, I was a busy boy and I enjoyed every minute of high school. I doubt I watched an hour of tv the four years of high school.

I was in 4-H for a long time and knew a bunch of very sharp and good looking girls from other schools as a result. I always had some to choose from for our dances and often got invited to other schools' dances. And, yes, I knew how to dance.

Wallflower here.

I was drinking Jim Beam in the parking lot.

Depends on how they kill you. Was killed after quite a few dances and always loved it. Agree 100% with Hanco. Women love a man that can dance.
