This old Boston Globe article suggests they were a crazy by 1990 but they're quoting a 9-year-old so maybe it was a bit too young for us in high school (but I don't remember my younger sisters having them either). Another site says it caught on with the rave scene which I wasn't a part of at all. |
Early 90s? Hardly. Mid 80s, maybe late 80s. I remember them from elementary school, which would put you in Jr. High, early high school at the oldest.
But perhaps SoCal lead the way on that one.
