College reunions and such

Postby Ogygian » Wed Oct 14, 2009 9:36 am

This coming weekend is my 20th college reunion, at the University of San Diego.

Have any of you attended high school or college reunions? I have to admit, I passed on my high school ones, but I can't wait for this weekend. I just wish I hadn't lost all my once beautiful hair, or gained 1000 lbs.....

Any crazy stories from reunions past? Anyone never attended a reunion? What are your thoughts?

#2 reason for not going is weight gained.
#1 reason is death.

I missed my last one and shortly after two of my friends from the old crowd died. One guy was a health nut, boxer in the Navy and afterwards, stayed slim all his life. That doesn't bode well for me!

My college is defunct (well, moved, sold, changed names [several times]) so no reunions there.

Been to several for my high school -- small school back then, so reunions are for several years. Who are all those old people, anyway?

I could never, ever go to my high school re-union.

The main reason is that I accidentally had relations with over 1/2 the young ladies and they would be all over me again - in front of my wife. And that's not good.

Anyone else have this problem?
