Here in Champaign, IL there is a park with a bunch of statues near a 
creek. They were made in the 70s and are sort of flat silhouette outlines
of students standing or sitting by the creek, many of whom have 
bell-bottoms.
When I was in college here in the 80s, we of course made fun of the. Now
they are in style again.

A while back I was playing a gig at an art gallery and there was this guy
there wearing a peach-colored polyester leisure suit. His friends were
telling him how cool it was. I dunno.
