I just missed it in 1996 I was in highschool in Alabama at the time. I wasn't old enough to go alone, I wanted to go bad but my brother couldn't stop to get me. He crossed over from Louisiana at Grambling State to go.
Someone put that picture of that cop spreading that woman cheeks at the picnic and the guy asked him to take the picture down because it was his mom. 🤦🏾
@ncl1213 Lol..Men have told these stories to everyone including our kids even our daughters as examples of how men are. Women are the ones who try and hide and forget what they did back then because they know they were the first generation to publicly wild out like that.
I’ve asked my momma on 15 occasions if she ever been to freaknik. I get the same reply everytime, she say she wasn’t there. Lord knows my heart can’t take it if I find out she was
Mannnnnnnnnn I went in 93 thanks to having older brothers and cousins. I should have stayed my young tail home. Ain't know how to act the whole time 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
He is exactly correct. After the Olympics Atlanta was a dope city. I have many friends that made Atlanta their home after graduating from college. Lots of opportunity.
I moved to the u.s back in 96 and I remember driving over to Atlanta with some dudes I went to school with and they were hoping for any signs of life from freaknik. The stories they were telling in the car on the way there had me in awe at the time haha
Yeah Shannon used to have money in college that he got from his brother Sterling. He used to be out there plus he went to an HBCU in Georgia. Shannon was wild.
Shannon’s face and reaction when ‘93 Freaknik is mentioned😅. Clearly it was something where *you just had to be there* . Shannon was out there fighting for his life in them ATL streets and with those women.
I remember when “Couldn’t be betta Playa” feat Too Short came out and Too Short pulled up in a Porsche on Wesley Chapel Rd in Decatur. And I believe that house he’s talking about was in Cascade Heights in Southwest Atlanta
I sat in VIP at club 112 with the 2 live crew dancers when they pulled up in twin trans ams.Curved couch with the yellow ropes separating.I felt like superman that night!!!!
Too young!!! 93' I was only 10🙄🙄🙄 By tye time I got old enough it was long gone. People tried to reinvent it butttt from what I hear it was one of those "you had to be there to believe it kinda things!!!
I was there during those times. Escape with my cousins who was high rollers. I was to young. I got in trouble with my mom because I was 16 and 17. I remember the year I was there Suge and the 🐐 Makaveli The Don was there. I believe 95. Mannnn best time of my life and nothing never topped it since then and I'm 44 now. Facts 💯💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
1993 was a great year! I was at L.A. job corps and Too Shorts “Get In Where You Fit In” tape was the soundtrack Menace to Society great times fun times
Lmaoooo. Mannnnnn. The chicks that use to be in Magic City and down in Miami were ridiculous in the 90’s. The BBLs you see today… them chicks were actually built like that.
@@vincentleaphart1870 I didn’t go until 98. I think it was in the early 2000’s before I went to Blue Flame. I heard it wasn’t the same. I missed the 90’s era.
Lol being from Atlanta even as a kid growing up if you wanted to be apart of freaknic just literally go outside and they would be literally gricklockd traffic partying in the street
Southwest Atlanta is my side of town. I remember my grandma was looking for property, and we were looking at this one house in a really fancy neighborhood. The neighbors came over and greeted us and proceeded to say Too Short lives a few houses down. My mouth dropped. 😮
I was always interested in knowing more about Freaknik but I came across a post on social media from someone who was a kid back then and he saw and heard of the carjackings, the shootings, the fights and even the rapes that were going on during those times. interesting how we glorify these kinda things within our culture. Not saying it was all bad but I know it wasn't all good.
I went to visited Atlanta for the Georgia Classic and ended up moving there. ATL has that effect on people. I has JUST missed the BMF reign. That was all everybody talked about.
Saw Biggie Smalls and Too Short at Piedmont park during Freaknik 93. Don’t forget about Pleasers and BodyTap and that good club across the street from the Krispy Kreme on Ralph D Abernathy and Ashby… Don’t remember the name though.
I remember going to spring break in Daytona Beach each year with my boys.. Then the next week it was FREAKNIC IN THE ATL !! KICK THE BEACH TOWN TIME FOR THE THROWDOWN FREAKNIC BOUND DESTINATION A TOWN!!
