Dude. I remember that day. And I’m not 75. Yet.

[ArtDodger]

On that date, I was in school and remember several teachers crying. The principal said something or other over the PA system which sounded like adults squawking in a Charlie Brown cartoon.
Quiet bus ride home and into the den where the little B&W TV was explaining everything. Then, into the yard to play.

Well, I had yet to be born 75 years ago today, but my parents were celebrating the first Thanksgiving after the end of WWII.

[Vermont Lt]

I am a month older than John-John.

So, I was wondering why I couldn’t watch my afternoon cartoons.

And the TV was turned around from the living room so we could watch at the kitchen table. That never happened before.

57 years ago I was 16 months old, so I was eating, pooping, and bugging my big brother. Mr. Vaskypilot was in elementary school and remembers the announcement from the principal.

I’m 79 today. I lost 18 years.

Well, these answers are just about as entertaining as if you’d posted 57 years.

I still encourage you to re-post with 57 years. I would be fun to see the answers. Might reword the title a bit to distinguish - Something like,

“What were you doing 57 years ago today (when JFK was shot)?”

[ConservativeDude]

I’m no math whiz....but....this headline gave me a fright. Sort of Rip van Winkle vibes

[Tellurian]

Returning WW2 soldiers were busy making Baby Boomers.

Getting ready to come out into the world in about a month and a half.

[MuttTheHoople]

SOMEBODY SHOT PRESIDENT KENNEDY????? OH NO!!!!!

[vespa300]

I wasn’t born yet.....just a gleam in my daddy’s eye. But I was in Kindergarten when JFK was assassinated.

[dainbramaged]

I was in 6th grade, Miss Lyon's class - she was a chain smoking spinster who hated children, wore a bad wig and put her lipstick on with a paint roller.
The principal's secretary came in, whispered something to the teacher and returned with a radio - some girls were crying at the news and were admonished by that rotten hag of a teacher for doing so.
She must have voted for Nixon.

I was born on this date 77 years ago.

In 1963 on this date when I was 20 years old, I was in the Bay Of Florida salvaging a U2 plane that Castro/Soviets shot down.

When the announcement was made that JFK had been shot we were sure we were going to war with USSR.
