Can we rename this section of the board the Obituaries?

Lookout! You're showing your age. Keep in mind that this is (most of the time) a family environment with posters from high school age to at least their mid-80s. Everyone isn't going to have an appreciation for everything posted because it may not have relevance to them.

Just as an FYI--the Supremes played to an SRO audience in Old Broome-Kirk Gym in the 60s. They played to another packed-house audience in Varsity Gym in the 70s as a lead-up feature act sometime prior to Rally Weekend. They also played a packed VG to a slightly older crowd during the 80s.

You must be a grad from the early 90s or sometime since.

I don't have anything against the Supremes.

9 of the threads on the first page of this section (on mobile) are RIP threads. I think this shows that there should be an obit subsection.

I completely misinterpreted your post. Soldier on, fellow Appster! Wish we were trading positive posts about the basketball season, but...
