Yeah, I remember that fad. And there were kiddies that wore their troussers in that manner. They served as comedy relief for the rest.

I did see someone wearing backward pants-on "The Gong Show" where they also drew a face on his body and "whistled" through his belly button.

Didn't they also shave off parts of their eyebrows? Whatever the spin doctors behind those guys were on, I DON'T want any, and I don't knock back much. ;D
That Top 10 list is interesting. I know all those songs, but how many of them would be played today, except to embarrass someone?

I never considered wearing my jeans backwards. I just kept thinking it wasn't very efficient when it comes to having to use the restroom. (of course, that's all changed, with the kids wearing their pants down past their ass...)

I didn't wear jeans forward, much less backward. Heck, I never wear jeans now anyway. Think the only time I used to wear jeans a lot was when it was required for a job...

I remember that style vividly. Can't believe it was 10 years ago. I was in high school in 1992, graduated in '96. When kids look back on those 1990s styles and laugh at them, you know you're getting old.

I was in High School too, and remember the style . We made fun of Kris Kross. We thought it was ridiculous. ??? That's when the baggy pants crap started too.

God, time flies. I was 10 1/2 when that song came out. I remember my best friends 10th birthday her parents rented us a limo and we were listening to Kriss Kross while we had our heads out the sunroof!

I do remember that, however, isn't there some kind of time limit that something has to be popular for it to be considered a fad. If memory serves correctly it was very short lived (although not short enough).just my $0.02

Not me, I was 18 in 1992, but I remember the style. I also remember that stupid style where people would wear overhalls and leave one strap hanging like they were so cool. That was probably in 1990 or so because I had a friend that was 2 years younger than me and she wore overhalls to school like that and I am more than sure I made fun of her!
I wore a lot of those stupid lycra stretch pants that had funky prints and big sweaters. LOL
