Big hair, shoulder padded blouses, leg warmers, Rebok executive queens, Nintendo's Super Mario Brothers W/ Duck hunt (8 bits), Stereo Television (where available), The Fox network's Married with Children! Rat tails, spiked hair, the wet perm and Geri curls! The hair bands were just on the verge of super stardom. I have a photo taken outside the Chicago Hard Rock cafe, but just next door at the Amoco gas station, the gas was goin for $.88 cents a gallon! I never thought the 80's would be missed.
I was their in July of 87and 88, I saw the first night game at Wrigley, the Chicago Cubs and the Philadelphia Phillie's! I am from Philly, and I took some great photo's that night in the ball park, I didn't have a video cam back then, and you know they were huge compared to the one's available today! I photographed all these places, and I drove all over town in my little Pontiac Grand Am rental, Ahh the 80's, Reaganomics, no cell phones or texting, just people plugged in to their Sony Walkman-
