In Australia they were that in the 90s maybe, but I don't think ever there 80s from what one person replying was saying (laughing at us for being "so behind"- don't even get me started). I know I've heard nothing about it till now, but it could have been some niche trend somewhere in middle America that no one heard about at the time, because, well, we didn't care. It now seems to be a midwest thing from what I've heard, which explains why I'd missed it (aside from wrong age group). Also, CNN may have pulled the 80s thing out of their collective ass- the bracelets were around then, so some reported decided the game must have been, regardless of the fact we JUST WORE THE BRACELETS.
