We use to celebrate Sadie Hawkins day in highschool with a sock hop on the gymnasium floor, to which the girls invited the guys.

A perfect moniker—sock hop. What fun we had!

Well it looks like I picked a bad time to catch the flu.

For the record, according Al Capp, Sadie Hawkins Day is not at any fixed day on the calendar, but occurred whenever he said it occurred.

FR trivia: In his youth, BlackElk was Al Capp’s chauffeur. Capp was a real character.

Years after High school, after I got out of Boot Camp, a gal asked me If I wanted a date and it wasn’t even Sadie Hawkins Day!
This Midwestern boy was shocked!

Thanks for the reminder. I haven't even thought about Sadie Hawkins day in years. I well remember the Li'l Abner comic strip. I also remember being asked for a Sadie Hawkins Day date by a young lady from the Catholic Young People's Club in Dayton. I liked her enough that I asked her out several more times, but we broke up and I ended up marrying someone else.
