3. Best Prom story: I bought a dress for both my junior and senior prom, but didn't end up really going to either. 2 minutes into Prom each time, my boyfriend kept pulling on my arm and made me leave (same guy!)
4. What makes this candidate deserving?I have never been able to go to Prom, and the fact I am still an 80's girl at heart. I love the music and bought sirus satellite so I don't have to be without my 80's rock. I had the highest hair in school and I am your typical Valley Girl-love the movie.

4. What makes this candidate deserving? I always bring the fun and am always looking to have a crazy adventure. I haven't had one like that in a while, and I think its time to step up the game! Plus I will be wearing straps this time and plan on dancing the night away with my boobs inside my dress.

Prom King

Doug

1. Favorite 80's movie quote: "This one goes to 11"-Nigel -This is Spinal Tap
2. Favorite 80's Song: Judas Priest "You got another thing coming"
3. Best Prom story:For my senior prom, I borrowed my boss' brand new Mercedes Benz. On the way to dinner, my friends in another car followed us and we were racing each other down the highway. It had been slightly raining a little and when we came to a stoplight, I stopped quickly, but my buddies car ran right in the back of us totaling his car and leaving the rear of my bosses new Mercedes in ruin. To make matters worse, when the police showed up to take the police report, he asked for registration. I opened the glove box only to find a .22 caliber pistol. I quickly closed the glove box and said, "nope, my boss doesn't have his paperwork anywhere in the car".
4. What makes this candidate deserving?My first albums I ever bought were Def Leppard's Pyromania and Quiet Riot's Metal Health which topped the charts in 1983 as the first Metal album to hit number 1. I have had both a 78 and 79 Trans Am and currently have a 2001 Trans Am. All of them BLACK. I grew up on the Dukes of Hazzard and Knight Rider as my favorite two shows. I still play all the 80's tunes daily and still crank it to 11!

Tim

1. Favorite 80's movie quote:
"Nigel Tufnel: Well, it's one louder, isn't it? It's not ten. You see, most blokes, you know, will be playing at ten. You're on ten here, all the way up, all the way up, all the way up, you're on ten on your guitar. Where can you go from there? Where?
Marty DiBergi: I don't know.
Nigel Tufnel: Nowhere. Exactly. What we do is, if we need that extra push over the cliff, you know what we do?
Marty DiBergi: Put it up to eleven."
2. Favorite 80's Song: "Something About You" by Level 42
3. Best Prom story: After Senior Prom, my friends and I got a room at a hotel. We had a cooler full of drinks that we'd managed to procure: wine coolers, cheap beer...the shit you scrape together when you are merely 18 year old punks. My buddy drank like one wine cooler and a beer and proceeded to act trashed (and NOT as a joke...he seriously thought he was drunk. I'm not sure he knew what drunk was). The whole time, all I could think of was that MadTV sketch with Rusty getting wasted and passing out on one sip of Zima.
4. What makes this candidate deserving? I am OBSESSED with the 80's. Being born and growing up in the 80's has given me a great sense of nostalgia. The ridiculous music videos that were like mini b-grade movies. The crazy fashions ranging from sleek tailored suits (good) to Miami Vice t-shirts and linens (great) to neon jackets with giant shoulder pads (please stab my eyes out)...

Kevin

1. Favorite 80's movie quote: "COWABUNGA"...Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
2. Favorite 80's Song: "Africa" - Toto
3. Best Prom story: He had to take his cousin from the next town over because he couldn't get a date....and then tried to prove she wasn't his cousin by giving her a kiss.....pretty sad.
4. What makes this candidate deserving? His general awesomeness.... he's overcome a quick bout of incest as well as braces from until his junior year in COLLEGE. poor guy.
