Show us your best senior prom pic. Funny, pathetic, beautiful....you pick. Bonus if you have a ridiculous story to tell.

Dawn5481 · November 2014

I beat up my prom date after prom. He was being an asshole. Unfortunately, he was so tall I couldn't reach his face very well. Had to go for the gut. Cropping his fugly ass out.

ETA: Fun fact - My boobs were duct taped. I'm not that well endowed.

poofwok · November 2014

Great idea! Although I think all my prom pics are at my parents house.

May I ask why your date got a beating? Seems like an interesting story

Dawn5481 · November 2014

He did a lot of stupid stuff that night. We were arguing left and right. P.S. I do not condone beating up your prom date (or anyone else). I was a silly Catholic school girl...pent up aggression I suppose

So, are your prom pics digital?

I feel old....

Hell no, that is a picture of a picture.

mislogis · November 2014

His senior prom. Fun fact: he's my husband now

19 years together and counting. Still one of my favorite pics of us. And I bought a really good scanner - no dig pics here yet

Mine is from 2005. My aunt made my beautiful bubble gum pink dress since I couldn't find one that was long enough for me. I had a last minute date switch. A friend and I were supposed to go together and 2 weeks before he started dating someone new and ditched me. So I went with another friend who never got to go to his and had so much fun

RoccoBabyK · November 2014

My pictures are digital.....2009 was my senior prom and I went with a good friend. He's really tall and I'm really short so we looked weird. Nothing interesting happened. I can't even remember the night and not because I was drunk lol.

I attempted to delete the second picture but my phone is being stupid so it's there forever. Anyway it's my junior prom. We had both at my school because it's so small. Looking at these pictures makes me want to work out. Will this baby weight ever leave?!

*Merry* · November 2014

Can't find a picture right now but my story is that my date kept calling me his girlfriend all night... On the way home I reminded him I was leaving for school in 4 weeks in Tennessee (I'm from Canada) and I did not want a bf, thought we were just friends.... Haven't heard from him since that night... Oh and I drive us there in my moms giant van

caybeh · November 2014

No pictures here. My junior prom I actually went with a distant cousin. He's like my third cousin. For the record, I went to a really small school. My senior year I went with my boyfriend at the time. Both proms we went on a riverboat, but had to take a two hour bus ride one way to get there.
Oh the stories...
My junior year, the senior boys bought a movie to watch on the way home. It was a greyhound bus. Yeah, the movie they picked was borderline porno. Awkward....

My senior year, the riverboat never left the dock due to thunderstorms. On the bus ride back with that one, boyfriend and I started making out, and friends took pictures. I was embarrassed.

cdseno · November 2014

My junior and senior year I went with the same guy. He was my boyfriend and we thought we would be together forever. Man am I glad I dodged that bullet! Yes he is shorter than me. I hated my hair because I paid a ton of money for what was essentially a ponytail. He took me on a picnic instead of to a nice dinner and forgot the silverware and cups and it was freezing cold. Senior prom kind of sucked. I haven't looked at these pictures in forever and I barely recognize myself or my glorious body:(

lynds002 · November 2014

Wow everyone in a14 is gorgeous.

BabyM82714 · November 2014

Junior Prom 2010. I'm on the right. Sure miss that soccer star bod!

Senior Prom 2011. I'm on the left. I wore a pink sparkly ball gown.

This is fun! You ladies look gorgeous.

No real funny stories, except we all went to after prom every year from 11-5am then all went to after after prom and went for breakfast and crashed at a friends the whole next day. Good memories.

BabyM82714 · November 2014

Just realized none of my pictures have my dates. Oh well. He was a loser anyways

kaitm22 · November 2014

Ooh, I'll play, fun thread!

Here is DH and I at our Junior Prom. We went to a very small school, so we actually went to prom all 4 years, 3 of them we were dating. We will have been together 9 years this March.

lynds002 · November 2014

I just went and dug mine out. No fun stories, just your average prom and post prom at the high school.

Peedy · November 2014

So... I won't be able to find my prom pics.. I graduated in 2001, they're in my parents' basement somewhere....

But this is me as a bridesmaid in 2007.. It was one of the first photos I had ever uploaded to FB.

@Dawn5481, your dress was GORGEOUS! Looks like it fit you like a glove. :x

I loved that dress. It was two sizes to small, cost my entire savings, and the only reason I bought it was because the gay man working at the store told me I looked hot in it. I didn't eat for a week before prom.

Dawn5481 · November 2014

I'm old. My senior prom was 15 years ago. Gross.

haliebabyx3 · November 2014

It's been a while since I've posted, sorry ladies, but i'm finally behind my computer to do so(that doesn't include my work computer).

First one is my junior prom, I went with friends. I am in the pink. I went and bought a $50 dress and partied the night away without a care.

This one is my senior prom. I went with my boyfriend that I dated off and on for 6 years. I am in the zebra dress, my best friend throughout high school one prom queen. Fun fact: He is now engaged to my H's only other serious girlfriend besides me, that he dated for 4 years.

MrsLeahBentley · November 2014

I took my husband to my senior prom, who wasn't in high school at the time (because he's insane and graduated HS at 14), but here is one of us, then one of my full length dress which I still love.

I love your dress!

Thank you!! I spent an arm and a leg on it, but it was worth it. I still have it

I already had my masters and was teaching high school in 2009... I am so old.

herecomesthesun · November 2014

@MereDe3 Mine was 20… doesn't that make you feel so old? That time has NOT passed. No way. Nuh uh.

I don't have any photos but my date was a guy I had a crush on but was a friend. I had a boyfriend (college-aged) but he went on a family trip to Alaska . He asked me not to go to prom but f-that! It's my prom, dude. Just because you are older and already went to prom and are going on vacation doesn't mean I don't get to go to mine! Anyways, I ended up making out with my date (nothing more because I was so, so innocent back then, the big V) and broke up with the jerky boyfriend. Nothing came of the date crush guy… we went to rival schools so that was that.

Class of 2000 here. I'll try to dig some up from the dusty box in my attic!

Nope, nope, nope - I don't want to play this game. I looked horrid, and my date (a friend) abandoned me half way through the night to go get some, and there was a lot of underage drinking that I mightily regretted the next day.
I can't compete with the rest of you foxy ladies
And Class of 02 representin', woo, woo!

ETA: spelling is hard

"02 here too and I hate my prom pics also... no way am I sharing.

rstarrlemaitre · November 2014
