Day-After-Prom Day

I wore my tux. With my crown bitches.

What are crown bitches, and when did people start wearing them to prom?

Kids did this in high school where I grew up, but I refused to follow suit.

They do it in my current ward, but I noticed that the YM fortunately abstain. The alpha male in the crowd probably doesn't do it and the rest follow suit. In the ward I was in before it wasn't the same case. One kid wore a black NBA First Rounder tux with about 4 or 5 buttons along with a black shirt and pink tie. I went up to the kid and called him Silvio and he had no idea what I was talking about.

I would have done it....

But I passed out in my front yard before I even got into the house. And the sprinklers woke me up.

Didn't make Church either.

[COLOR=DarkOrchid]Today we had about a half dozen girls

Any prom dresses with torn material around the zippers?

One girl was rocking a tiny little number complete with spaghetti straps and cleavage.

Did Sister Donut have to remind you it wasn't polite to stare?

I never went to prom, but I obviously am all for crazy suits in church.

I thought doh'nuts was a leg man, but he obviously appreciates the full anatomy of almost 18YO girls the female form.

17.5 year olds have legs too!

Mine, too.

Davis County FTW!

Where did you grow up? Which HS did you go to? When?

[Uncle Ted]

Never saw it once in tx

I haven't seen this here either but, as a side note, there are the homecoming "mums" which I haven't seen anywhere except for Texas and parts of occupied North Texas (aka Oklahoma)...

I've seen prom attire on Sundays "off-and-on" in my neck of the Texas' woods (which is the same as yours). Seems the YM/YW make the call each year. Last year, my son & friends all wore their prom attire as well as another ward in our building. This year I haven't seen any prom attire. So it appears to occur at times but is far from a Texas LDS tradition.

I'll never understand the homecoming mum thing. My wife and kids just tell me it's one of those "Texas things" that I have yet to comprehend. My wife loves to help our boys make them. A couple of years ago, our son spent more time creating a homecoming mum for his date then he did on preparing for his SAT. Fortunately, he still got into his first choice of colleges and still laughs when recalling that I predicted he would end up at a community college because he was too busy cutting ribbons and arranging flowers to study for a college entrance exam.

Is Day-After-Prom Day celebrated elsewhere, or is this a local thing?

People always did it in my ward growing up. Mostly the nerds.

Most of the girls were wearing modest frocks that screamed "I have taken my YW lessons very much to heart". Interestingly, two of them are still Miamaids, so evidently they pick and choose which lessons are important. A couple of the girls were wearing somewhat scandalous dresses but had clearly added a sweater to make them slightly more church appropriate. One girl was rocking a tiny little number complete with spaghetti straps and cleavage.

Must be a Utah thing, I've never heard of this tradition but agree that it's kinda silly. I've got to say, though, that I don't think there's anything wrong with spaghetti strap formals. Outside of Utah it's hard to find cute formals with more, and I wouldn't necessarily classify spaghetti straps as totally scandalous. Again, must be a Utah thing.
