#20: The LAN Party
Okay, kids, buckle up. Back in the day, 90s and early 2000s kids would lug their PC computers to their friend’s house to play video games together. If this makes absolutely no sense, you simply had to be there. Back in the 90s, the word “connection” had a totally different meaning. Sure, you could play online using your parent’s dial-up internet, but it wasn’t the same.
If you remember the glory days of LANNING, you probably have cherished memories of endless afternoons and nights playing “StarCraft” while on a sugar high of Mountain Dew and cookies. Some may have labeled you as a “nerd,” but you knew the truth. There was nothing better than pulling an all-nighter with your squad, screaming at your computer game, and forming life-long memories.
