I know! That’s real! Coach Rob was great and I know you didn’t drink Hi-C Grape?! That’s alright though, that Hi-C orange was the bomb, just like playin around on the Grambling Yard!You takin me back to the good ole days. What I want to know is if you rocked that license plate?
I can’t even remember when a person made such a contribution like Coach Rob
His life will be celebrated more than the average Bob.
Because he brought more to the sport than any of these old bats.
They just need to sit down, take some lessons from the original GSU Cat
Rest in Peace, Coach Rob! You will be missed!

Girls had Treasure Trolls
-Not this chick…those little things freaked me out.
We played Kick ball, freeze tag

Grape Drink
-Nope, no Grape or Orange “drink” for me.
Paper bags for Book covers
-My favorite, because I could draw all over it.
Mann, I am mad you know the Holograms names. Lol
Played the Recorder…Hot Crossed Buns
-Why was I just talking about this the other day. My now I was already playing the cornet, but I was crunk when I got my recorder. Lol
Motown 25 Mike Was all the Talk
-That’s when I fell in love…did not take me to long to fall out of love however. *smh*
Got the Pac Man Ice cream with the bubblegum eye

Fellas proved they had sex saying “smell my finger”

Now that I’m caught up, I can say you’re still puttin’ it down! And so…
We ate Alexander the Grapes, Fruit cocktail imperials
I loved the fuk out of Alexander the Grapes
M.U.S.C.L.E
Madballs
Mr. T
Was there anything we played with that DIDN’T get a cartoon?
Jo,Blair, Tootie
Mrs. Garrett, Natalie
I loved me some Tootie. Didn’t she sing “Dear Micheal”?
Grape Drink
Quarter waters
Little barrel juice
I could go for a Jungle juice and biscuit right now
Lolly Lolly Lolly Here get your Adverbs
indubitably
Intertech water rifles
Zap it Guns,
Super Soakers
The pistol, a couple of Supersoakers and some water balloons made for a lot of fun. Oh the carnage, oh the fun. Bring back water gun fights. FYI, Google intertech water rifles. First entry comes here.
The Muppets with Beaker and Dr. Bunsen Honeydew
Beaker was cool, but it was all the 2 dudes in the balcony clownin’ folks.
Debatin on who would win in a fight Snarf or Kringer
Snarf, of course. He’d be scared at first, then he’d fake a jump bad and stand on his tail. Kringer would be a mile a way in a heart beat.
That is all
