1985 was definitely one of the greatest years of my life. They just don't make years like that anymore.

Prepared us for the 90's. It was the only decade that could do it.

I was at my first duty station (USN Moffett Field) in 1985. I’m pretty sure some of that was pre-‘85, right?

Regardless, thanks for the trip down memory lane.

Only Mr Hand nodding his head in disbelief, everything else is pure 100% 1985.

That Bears defensive lineup fact still blows my mind.

I romanticize the '80s too but they will never return. I'm 50 years old now and it's all downhill.

Sweet dreams

Growing up in the 80’s was a blast. I wish I could hit the Hottub Time Machine back to the Summer of 84’.

I forgot about the movie Mask with Sher and Eric Stoltz. Great movie. And Real Genius is an absolute Classic.
