Who here Grew up in Atlanta or the South?????

[JUICY_FRUIT]

I grew up in Savannah, 4 hours away from ATL...and yes, the skating rink was the spot

 

[So ILL]

That damn tootsie roll song brings back memories. We use to have to dance to it in PE in junior high. Like it was an actual requirement.

Lol @ the bolded......

It guess growing up skating is a south thing. In Memphis in the early 90s we use to go to Crystal Place on 3rd street and post up. And on Sunday especially if you had a car would be Demin and Diamonds. Sad part about it is that we never were able or wanted to go in(Not old enough). Talk about meeting bad bitches outside the club..SMH. That shit was like the parking lot pimping training ground. I been to the last Freak Nic in about 95 and it wasnt messing with Black Bike Week in Myrtle Beach.

If skating a south thing why was Roll Bounce set in Chicago? That was the 70s tho right. So maybe skating got played out in the Midwest afterwards.

It was really a Georgia thing I guess. My wife always bringing up how they use to get down after a football game. SW Dekalb. In Louisiana where the drinking age was 18 in the club until 1994, we always had a preteen club to go to.
In Shreveport we had bounce music(New Orleans) and huge Cali influence.
