the 90's were not too long ago...but what fads do you remember?
here's are a few...
The Macarena
During the 90's you couldn't turn on the tv, radio or go to parties without hearing this song. People would dance The Macarena to the song made popular by Los Del Rio.
Budweiser Wassup Commerical
This popular Budweiser beer commercial started a new trend for the 90's. It caught on quick. People were answering their own phones and saying, "Wassssssuuup!!". There were even many different mocked versions all over the internet
Napster
This music sharing community which is now a paid service was once free. All internet users had to do was download the software and get any mp3 music file they wanted. After a couple years, the Record Industry caught on to this, considered it piracy and took Napster to court. The result was Napster being shut down
Tickle Me Elmo
This popular toy would giggle when you tickle its belly then it would end with a "Oh boy, that tickles". Elmo, who became the most popular character from Sesame Street in the 90's was on every kids Christmas wish list and stores were selling out quickly. People who really had to have one for Christmas had to resort to buying them for more on auction websites.
