Grad HS in 77 Memphis. My class was the same as the seniors in Dazed and Confused. It was very much like our high school life except for the hazing. The cliques all intermingled a bit. Life was different then because with drinking age at 18 beer and booze was plentiful and easy to get. The Schlitz brewery was 2 miles from campus and we’d go at lunch and they’d let us skip the tour and go straight to the tap room. Self serve. Chug a few cups of Schlitz and head back to school. Cars were also part of the culture. Muscle cars were cheap so all us poor kids had them. Rich kids had conversion vans, Bricklins, Vettes, or new wheezy TransAms. That parking lot would go for a few mil at Mecum. I had a 70 Olds 442. There were 67-72 Camaros, TransAms, Mustangs, Cudas, Challengers, etc. A buddy had a 64 Dodge Dart that he inherited. Took out the slant six and put in a Hemi. He won lots of money. So if you weren’t dating a chick we all hung out at a set of places. There was a burger place we hung out at. Pizza inn and Shakeys allowed us to take over dining rooms and drink pitchers of beer. It was very cool. There wasn’t as much weed as in the movie. Memphis was very tough on it and beer was cheaper. That was more a college thing for us.
