Outside Action Whether partying at a friend’s house or cruising by Mr. Gattis on Saturday nights, students had their own special hangouts away from school. Most students preferred to start the weekend with a Big Mac at McDonald's. Afterwards, they’d all leave in small groups for a keg party or simply a night on the town. They could pump five dollars worth of tokens into the video games at Aladdin’s Castle or they could try to pick up dates at Kell’s Arcade. When a new face walked in the door, all the regu- lars turned to stare at the intrusion into their video territory. They could get to their hangouts only by a couple of different ways. Either their par- ents dropped them off, a fate to be avoided, or they'd drive themselves. About a third of the student body drove to school every day in everything from barely run- ning wrecks to freshly waxed and polished hot rods. Even more students had access to cars at home. Every single student who drove a car felt that if was his own car even if it legally wasn't theirs. A few spared no expense fo give their cars the best paint job, a powerful stereo tape player, and sporty, shiny wheels. Someone else's touching the car was a personal violation. The cars and the hangouts were like a home away from home to be protected from strangers. OU SNOWBALLS went flying as students were dismissed from school early after a snowstorm struck the area.
