A couple came to my prom in their actual wedding dress and tux because they got married earlier that day. It was wild. Those pictures are now in my yearbook.
This is the funniest group of people I’ve ever witnessed. I’m belly laughing constantly
Right?? I’m going to get abs from laughing sm lol
The phrase " boys are from Mars" was born because of Gabe. He cracks me up lmao
I have to share this story. I came from a small town and we had an annual high school dance held in a church gym. One year, the church didn’t allow the school to have the dance there because of what happened the previous year. Someone brought a chair into the middle of the dance floor and girls started giving lap dances. Like other high schoolers were throwing money at them while they were doing it. The chaperones saw and stopped them, but obviously it had already happened and EVERYONE heard about it. 😂
Also from SD! We definitely had a hypnotist more than once!!
We had a hypnotist at our post prom. School paid for it too. They had a casino game night with the hypnotist
We had a casino themed prom the teachers literally dressed up a dealers
Every single year for prom our school hires a hypnotist. Hypnotizm is like my worst fear. I haven't gone to prom yet, but my friends who have gone say they get hypnotized in the audience even if they weren't playing along. Hypnotizm is genuinely terrifying
Edit: im in Minnesota
That’s terrifying why on earth would they do this
I'm not an expert or anything, but I'm 97% sure you can't be hypnotized against your will.
bring earbuds
I just came here to drool over Gabe. Yes, I love everyone and could enjoy the audio version of this, but… like… DAMN.
Bri's wedding dress story!! 😂😂😂
My story: I had gone home to WA for the summer and my fiancé came to visit me. I had gotten a puppy while I was home visiting my family and working to earn money for the wedding. So I was like "I am not hauling a puppy and a wedding dress back to MN when the summer is over" so my solution was to send my fiance back to MN with my wedding dress. He said hauling a wedding dress bag onto a plane with no bride in sight was quite the conversation starter. 😂😂😂
I am from Minnesota and i can confirm the hypnotizing thing at prom is real 😂
I'm a Christian school graduate, so we had banquets instead of proms, since dancing was evil. 😂 Our after parties were always at the richest kid's house, who had an indoor pool and hot tub. There was plenty of adult supervision. Lol
As someone who grew up in south Dakota (although I'm from the west, and superior, side of SD) I can fill vouch for Gabe in the hypnotists at post prom/homecoming. It's a common form of 'entertainment' that schools like to hire. Not sure why though.
I can second this
We had a hypnotist at Project Graduation! It was fun! (Project Grad was hosted by the graduation class. We fundraised all year and rented the Rec Center all night and then had snacks, could swim, hypnotist, ice skate, play games, etc.) 😊
Bri looks soooooo good!!!!
Soooooo dang good! Go bri!
Present day and retro Bri are beautiful and classy!
We had a after graduation party, and we had a hypnotist every year and it was always the highlight of the night 😂
Already know this episode is Gonna be amazing 🤣
As somebody from South Dakota Gabe is completely correct, there has been a full blown hypnotist at every single one of our proms!!
I'm from iowa and our school, and every school around us has a hypnotist.
The wild grain ad after Gabe started talking about the no grinding rule I legit thought is said wild “grind”
The grinding though yes 😂😂 that’s all c/o 16 did
I'm from Iowa, and the staple of our After Prom used to be a hypnotist. We would start with games in the gym and then have a performance in the auditorium by a hypnotist. Sometimes, there would be a comedian or magician instead. I think they just play games now and don't have a performance.
someone dumped some glitter on my head before, I was sparkly for like a month after that.
27:19 lmao we had a hypnotist my senior year too. Must be a Midwest thing. I grew up in rural Nebraska
Our school didn’t do after prom however they did a lock in after graduation. It cost money to go, they literally locked you in until 7am but you didn’t have to go to school the next day and it was an excused absence if you were at the lock in. There were all sorts of carnival type games, dunk tank, money vortex, different movie rooms, gaming rooms,different food options that were catered in. The main entertainment was a hypnotist!! They would take 20 people on stage and ask them do wild things. He could 100% tell if you were faking and he would tap you on the shoulder and ask you to leave.
We had a hypnotist too! Pretty sure they still do every year! 😂
I already listened to this on Spotify but had to pop on here to see your clothes!
24:16 my school did the same. Every couple was announced but my class only had 42 kids and we were a huge class for our consolidated district
My class has 5 kids
I live in Michigan and had a hypnotist at my senior all night party 😂
I can't with Bri😭
Indiana here and we had a hypnotist at post prom too.
This is my comfort channel
I’m obsessed with these outfits guys 😍
Yes afterprom there was a hypnotist there for us as well! Also in my college we had welcome back/start of school year week and one night was a hypnotist. Guess it was a midwest kinda thing lol
I had a hypnotist at college, too. Not at prom, though, lol. I'm in the southeast.
I'm from East Tennessee, what's the point of the hypnotist for a prom?
You all look lovely🎉
I’m tells age and out after graduation party put in by the school was a hypnotist 😊
They had a hypnotist at my High School graduation party. I hide in the other room because I wasn’t doing that weird thing.
Also our prom did the hole promenade thing too. It was a small high school.
What a fun episode- everyone looks super cute.
GLITTER IS THE BEST, I WANT IT EVERYWHERE >:D
We did not have a hypnotist at afterprom but we did have a hypnotist at post graduation, which was school sponsored but planned and put together by parents of seniors.
I didn't go to prom (🤣🤣🤣), but I chaperoned our elementary school's family dance (instread of daddy-daughter or mother-son) and I was working / guarding the door . When the DJ started playing very innapropriate music. I had to RUUUUN across the cafeteria to tell the DJ to cut it off as all the parents were saying ooooooh! Also, random strangers were walking up tp the door and asking if they could come in... uhhhh, no!
This year I had my senior prom and we had a hypnotist at our after prom😂 funny thing I live in Minnesota but we drove to sd for after prom 😂😂😂 we rode buses there it was a trampoline indoor park
Yay!!!! So glad y’all posted this week!!!
Omg so true on all counts ❤❤❤❤
These 4 are my favorites out the others
My friends and I booked cabins at cedar point and it HAILED the whole time
I went to high school in Utah and we had a hypnotist at our senior lock-in. (Where they lock the seniors in the high school from like 9pm to 3 or 4 am, Chaperones are there). Love this podcast!!
our dances are at school during school so we will have it in our regular middle school clothing and it is 1:15 to 2:30 and then we have a basketball tournament during it and in the main gym we have a DJ and music in the cafeteria we have snow cones and board games and in 2 teachers classrooms we have rock painting and reading and we get wristbands so if you do something bad a teacher takes your wristband and if you get caught again with no wristband you get kicked out I like it because we have things for the kids with autism who don't like the loudness of it and also snowcones are cool
also in high school homecoming after party, they do axe throwing because we live in the country
I was so scared when no episode came out last week!
I graduated in 1999 so our prom theme We're gonna party like it's 1999, Thank you Prince😂😂
Our proms were at different venues, start and end time. When we left we already had planned which parties we were going to and had a change of clothes for when we got there lol. You all look flawless and sstunning
I do want to say that at our prom in Illinois, we had a hypnotist. Also it was a Catholic school
i live in PA and we still do an after prom from like 12:00am- 5:00am. i dont know if they theme it my brother didnt say but there's a raffle for a ton of prizes and theres games and everything
My first homecoming our tickets were like $50 and we only had a DJ. Someone stole the money from our tickets and we didn’t even have anything to drink or snacks. The vending machines were out too so we were all just stuck in the gym and thirsty for like 3 hours 😂. I can look back and laugh now but I was so mad at the time
In my town (rural canada) its been tradition to arrive at prom by either the coolest mode of transport they can find or the fanciest oldest car rather than limos. The dance happens at the hockey rink which shares a field with the small airport (which becomes overflow parking lot for grad and prom) so my year one couple did come by helicopter but i guarantee they didn’t pay for it lol theres always a group that comes in a fire engine, theres old muscle cars, old police cars, a couple girls rode horses. Another thing was you could drive yourself to prom (certainly looks cooler than mom or dad driving haha) but your vehicle had to be driven away by an adult to discourage after party drunk driving.
And the hypnotist was definitely a nearly annual thing 😂 and i’m around Lauren’s age for reference
My junior year prom was Masquerade and my senior year prom was Enchanted Forest
Not after prom, but my School Sponsored "after grad party" had a hypnotist 😅
18:54 I’M CRYING 😭😭😭
I graduated in 2015 we had a hypnotist to was wild
Here in Canada, we call it safe grad. Or at least in here, newfoundland and Labrador.
We have hypnotiztist at our proms as well - I live in the daktoas
After prom, my friend and I just went to Denny's (restaurant).
I had a hypnotist at my graduation (closest thing we get to prom in Canada).
🤣 Electric Slide, all my 90s peeps?
Soulja Boy was like.... 2006? 7? I know in July 2009, my 3 year old picked it up from a bunch of teenagers.
Edit* She was born late in 2005, she's going into her senior year of HS this coming year.
My older sister, barely 5 feet tall had a cupcake dress with 20 layers of tulle!
I actually went to two homecoming and one prom. I moved to a different state and had a homecoming there and prom. I left my prom early over my friends not finding me during prom. I think it was like an hour into me arriving at prom
For my senior prom me and my friends borrowed one of my friends, mom’s Cadillac Escalade and on the way to prom hit a big pothole that was so big the 5 foot one person hit their head on the roof
We also had a hypnotist for after prom but she got in a car accident on the way there so that was a bummer
Grew up in Jersey so after prom we all go down to the Jersey shore for the weekend. Get some rooms or a house for the weekend. It's nice. Our theme was "Under the Stars" so basically night time lol. It was cute. We had it at a fancy hotel in one of the halls. (to be clear it sounds super expensive but you can get a group rate and find cheap rooms close to the beach. there is def an affordable way lol).
Clothing: To Tell's point about a rented suit. Young men should invest in a tailored suit. Just to at least have one good suit while in high school/college. Furthermore, when getting married: The only correct answer is a tailored suit. I can't lol. You are a grown man getting married look the part. Again, there are super affordable options and ways to do things (in this economy it's hard to keep up with instagram/pinterest).
My school in North Dakota lose to South Dakota border also uses a hypnotist
Sturdy is like saying something is really great
I find this so interesting, because my prom was organized by the student body, in an external location to the school, with 0 chaperones and an open bar (legal age for drinking is 18 and anyone younger had a bracelet indicating it, which was completly ignored, honestly). South Dakota isn't ready for Europe
Sounds like my senior all night party after graduation
South Dakota is wild.
Just got here gang!
👇🏼
The background looks like New Year’s Eve
This is so wild to watch having grown up in the UK... we have prom at 17/18y/o- so the oldest kids may have passed their driving test but not everyone has. It's totally legal to drink, all the kids have been for years, so as long as you're subtle about things, teachers are happy for it to be a free for all and its a lot messier than in the US by the sounds of it..... Lets just say "Grinding" is not something anyone is worrying about or would even attempt to police.
We didn't do an after prom, but we did an all night party after graduation with bounce houses, food etc. We also had a hypnotist! It was neat.
Glitter is Satan sprinkles 🤣...Gabe we didn't have a hypnotist at prom but we did at grad blast so maybe it's a regional thing. Didn't seem that odd to this Minnesota girl
Great episode ❤
In middle my teacher got on my nerves and saw a sandwich on the radiator and ate it😅
2011 was the year I graduated. From high school My prom was crazy it got out of had at after prom that the cops show up
my high school after prom had a hypnotist too! YOU ARE NOT ALONE! 😂
I had prom a month ago and dude , it the weirdest prom I had including most of the girls just twerking 😅
I remembered my ex and I broke up a week from homecoming. My ex brought a girl that my group of friend and i hated as his date. We all glared at him. We left after one hour and went to the bowling alley. We bowled and ate Dennys. I was in my junior year of high school. 😂😂
I did 3 Military Balls and Prom back high school.
Is there a reason y’all haven’t posted anything on TikTok?
My high school used to do a post-prom and the location/activities varied each year. My freshman or sophomore year (before I was allowed to go), the post-prom had a hypnotist!
At my middle school dance we did the Congo line
Michigan afterprom we had a hypnotist and like 3 guys were obviously faking and one dude was a closeted gay but we all knew and he ended up singing its raining men.
Same with me,I didnt go out after prom either,I had the same Boyfriend all through high school (were now married) We did in 11th and 12th grade but for homecoming 9th 10th 11th and 12th. We didn't do anything we always went to dinner before homecoming but then after homecoming. We would normally just go back to my house or we would go and have a bombfire at a friend's house.. I live in flat rock michigan not too far from toledo.. There isn't much for us to do...
Bri SLAYSSSSS
I didn’t go to prom in my school because you had to pay $80 for a ticket PER PERSON and it was just held in the gym and the food provided was like hotdogs and burgers. What was the money for?!
Class of 2021 didn't have a prom. Covid ruined so much of our highschool experience 🙃
glitter is the herpes of craft supplies - you can never get rid of it!
I have chaperoned a prom where the chaperones were drunk.
As a preK parent, I only get glitter glue (from Dollar Tree) for my 5yo.
get sturdy = the thing where the person goes down kind of like a drop it like it’s hot but your legs are closed and then comes up and freezes for a second before going back down. kind of looks like a Russian.
Gabe, from PA and we had a hypnotis at Prom. 🤷♀️. I don't know if my school did it any other years but we definitely had one at Senior Prom. We also had Grand March where everyone got announced to go on the Middle School stage but it wasn't on the local news.
I wore a princess dress to prom and i regretted nothing
28:55 so…. Sounds like a potential for date grape allegations & lawsuits…. All about liability concerns! (In no way implying that hypnotism can cause or be a reliable defense against crimes or liabilities) but shady people do shady things.
39:56 I loves how she just turns into a turtle in a shell it’s hilarious 😂😂😂😂
