Could this happen today?

Unread post by Bootsy » Mon May 12, 2025 7:37 pm

While doing some serious spring cleaning, we came across a 1991 App State yearbook. In this day and age, one wonders if they’d allow the yearbook editors to publish a cover like this?

Could it really happen then? I set foot on campus in August of 1992 and the Rhododendron was no longer.

Yeah, it happened. I’m sure there are multiple copies of this yearbook floating around to corroborate that it’s real.

Some of y’all probably know the people in the photo. If you’re as old as me, it’s likely you can also relate to this:

The guy and girl were cheerleaders. Yosef is a guy named Darin McIntosh.

I thought I destroyed all of those pics. In my defense I wasn't feeling very good that day and I drank too much cold medicine. ;)
