Ok. That makes sense. I was being a 14 year old dweeb in a members only coat and trying to navigate high school. It’s one of those things I know was around but can’t conjure any actual personal memories. More memory as history than personal experience.
ETA: the members only coat might have been a couple years prior. The middle school and high school shared a parking lot and buses and I started taking high school classes in 7th grade. So 7th-9th is a bit of blur.
