    Any sort of geography besides the one made up in your profile would be helpful.

    What is Homecoming?

    Break out from your mental box.
    I found better company. Iced chocolate with coffee jelly, anyone?

    A school tradition where alumnis come back to gloat at their schools. Nobody really cares about that, it's more about getting dressed up and going to the football match (or ice hockey if you're Canadian ) and going to the parade and going out with friends before it and going to the dance. And crowning a Homecoming Queen who was so, like, totally not expecting it.

    Hahahaha, stereotypical Homecoming queen from a american teen movie

    So, homecoming is like, a reunion? I always thought it was at the end of the school year for the final year people or whatever.

    I think it depends on the town/school. If they like their town, they'll come back. Else they'd rather be dead.

    Yes sometimes I am rather confused about their Homecoming and Prom scenes in the movies. The characters in their Homecoming were still students in that school. Or I must be mistaken.

    Yes, back on topic or I will have to throw a dead fish at you.


    Both my daughters just went to homecoming last week. There is just a football game (some schools will have a small parade too) and then a dance after with dinner. I'm sure glad that night is over

    I never experienced homecoming. Because mom did not want to buy me a nice pink(junior) or blue(senior) dress.

    I can only remember attending the catball (for the army) and I did not even ask permission for it.

    Who actually goes to Homecoming games after graduation? I haven't laid eyes on my high school since graduation day 13 years ago.

    No, I didn't. The profile does not ask where you're FROM, it asks where you're LOCATED. I live in England, but I come FROM the United States. American expats do exist, you know.

    Re: [serious] Dinner Before Homecoming...

    Yeah. well here is how it is going down. lol. Homecoming is the 2nd dance of the year. it is semi-formal.
    1st Dance: "Hello Dance" - Stag (not formal, no date required).
    2nd Dance: Homecoming - Semi-Formal
    3rd Dance: Winter Formal - Formal (No Freshmen )
    4th Dance: MORP - Prom Backwards, Stag
    5th Dance: Prom - Formal (Juniors+)

    Here is how my night is going down:
    1st - Dinner at RedRobin. I am getting a chicken salad so i dont messup my outfit
    2nd - go to dance and dance. Have fun
    3rd - Go home.

    The day before the dance (friday) i am having a halloween party (fun!) There is like 10 people coming. We are going to have pizza, candy drinks (NO alcohal lol) and we are going to watch Stephen King's "The Shining" and "It"
