Under 35 here and I remember.. I was in 8th grade in class on a beautiful fucking tuesday morning.. and my principal came in and said that something serious had happened and they were releasing everyone to go home early(very small private christian school).. and I got home from school and watched the news all day..
I also was in the 8th grade when we were told to go home. It was JFK's assassination. I remember everything that day. People were freaking out. Also remember Lee Oswald, live on TV, getting shot.
I was too young for school when JFK was assassinated (5 y/o) but I remember the day very well. My mum & dad were so upset I knew it was really serious, so I wrote out a note on a piece of paper saying "JFK SHOT" and taped it to the front window. Early 60's version of FakeBook I guess.
The newspapers came out with a special edition that evening. I helped my friend to deliver them on his paper route. A lady stopped her car and started screaming at us for being out in the dark. Tears were streaming down her face - she was so upset at the assassination.
