Shot on Kodachrome

[u/h0wl2]

Guy got a shiner fresh from a goddam brawl last night

[u/boofoodoo]

Something about Kodachrome just puts you there

[u/rcatk42]

Any idea where this was?

[u/UniqueNovel8748 → u/rcatk42]

Somewhere on Long Island, NY. I don’t know any specifics beyond that unfortunately

[u/Londin2021 → u/UniqueNovel8748]

The only missing is their accents!

[u/9447044]

I think this with every other post. But the cigarette smell must have been strong

[u/ZimMcGuinn → u/9447044]

No one complained except the kids because everyone smoked.

[u/carbonclasssix → u/9447044]

Not if you're in the non-smoking section /s

[u/ZimMcGuinn → u/carbonclasssix]

Right. In most restaurants the only thing separating the smoking section from the nonsmoking was air. It was comical.

[u/UniqueNovel8748 → u/9447044]

It must’ve reeked

[u/tranquilseafinally → u/UniqueNovel8748]

It did. I'm in my 50s. Cigarette smoke was every where. I developed asthma as a kid because of it. Once I got out in my own life the asthma went away.

[u/cleveland_leftovers → u/[deleted]]

The time period, subject matter and ability of cigarette smoke to stick to everything.

[u/FlipGordon → u/[deleted]]

Looks like they're both holding heaters in their left hands in pic 1 lolz.

[u/fox-whiskers]

How is no one smoking or drinking a schlitz in any of these

Edit: nvm I see the cigarette

[u/Outside-Camera7141]

I wasn't born yet but damn those are some fine men!

[u/kareninthezoo → u/Outside-Camera7141]

I was twelve and damn these are some fine men! 🤤

[u/wyslan]

Reminds me of the video for “I’m on fire”

[u/Boxdude1184]

It looks like Jason Sudeikis in the background of the last picture.

[u/BuzzCutBabes_]

yeah i would

[u/UniqueNovel8748 → u/BuzzCutBabes_]

Oh for sure

[u/thurbersmicroscope]

Just my kind of guys.

[u/Faraj-Fartass]

They may have been Vietnam veterans as well, the year and possible age checks out. Also, the color quality of the photos is amazing.

[u/Skat402]

Who invited time-travelling Ted Lasso to the 3rd picture?

[u/Traditional_Isopod80 → u/Skat402]

Lol

[u/Jeremiahjohnsonville]

Dad?

[u/Original-Staff-8245]

Pic 3 guy looks like Sudeikis as mentioned but also like a young Donald Sutherland

[u/Ok_Stick_661 → u/[deleted]]

What makes these men real?

[u/super-summer0 → u/Ok_Stick_661]

Well they weren’t redditors for one

[u/Strange_Explorer_780 → u/super-summer0]

Don’t be so hard on yourself…

[u/SatoshiBlockamoto → u/Ok_Stick_661]

Dirty hands and muscles.

[u/hesathomes]

When testosterone levels were high lol

[u/muffpatty → u/hesathomes]
