Raise your plastic cups and party on! It’s time for a little chill and retro toast to the impending weekend of snow and taking the snap out of the cold snap with the warmth of some RFH guys of the late ’70s and early ’80s.

There’s nothing quite like roughing it — or hiding from cops and parents among the evergreens with a keg on snow and a toasty shots of something or other. Allegedly.
Hey, to be fair, these upper and mid-classmen of RFH could have been 18? After all, those were the days of the 18-year-old drinking age. Besides, that stuff with which they are toasting could have been cold hot chocolate. Ahem. Well, a football is in the picture, so some healthy sporting may have been involved. Ahem again.
OK. No matter what the situation, they’re looking pretty happy and, yes, toasty. And, at the risk of getting this motley crew of snow-capped woodland party boys some 40-something-year-old detention and a trip in the paddy wagon, let’s join in their celebration. There would be three things to fete — the adventure (whatever it was), the cheers to it and the company, of course.
And, since there was no internet back in those ’70s days, they deserve a little decades overdue viral action. Pass it on, like a note in class back in the day …
Cheers to the TGIF role models of the past! Don’t try this at home, kids. Relax, parents, it happened decades ago and that’s how parties got started and endured then.
