    What Lunch Box did you carry to school ?

    Me,
    I never used a lunch box.
    I always got "hot lunch" from the school.......
    But many times I would secretly envy kids with cool lunch boxes.
    In the class room on the bottom of the coat rack, they'd all be lined up.
    The only specific one I remember was my buddy's box... It was Scoobly Doo-- and I remember it because he had a rolling stones tongue sticker on Daphnie's behind

    So did you take a box to school ?
    Maybe a plain bag ?
    Or were you a hot lunchie, like me ?

    I was mostly a hot lunch guy, however on those cold lunch days I proudly carried my Super Friends lunchbox to school.

      Snoopy, Lidsville and Pebbles/Bamm Bamm. Those are the only 3 I remember my brother and I having. They are long gone now. I do have the '66 Batman, Super Friends, Super Powers, and Marvel Heroes waiting to be displayed someday.

          I think my first one was a Walt Disney/Mickey Mouse one, the bus perhaps?
          I also seem to remember 2 Scooby Doo lunchboxes, one metal and one plastic. And a Dynomutt...

          I remember an older girl had a Partridge Family lunchbox that looked like the bus...she used to sit across from me.

            Superfriends (my favorite which, sadly, I no longer have), Empire Strikes Back, and yes the Dukes of Hazzard (I still have that stupid thing!)

            My brother had Marvel Super Heros and Return of the Jedi.

            I remember having a fixation over my older friends Space:1999 lunch box.

              I usually had the hot lunch too, but would on occasion take a lunch box. I had Super Friends, Masters of the Universe, and Super Powers. I still have all of these, although some are fairly rusted!

              It didn't occur to me until years later, that the Super Friends lunch box is primarily aimed at...girls! The pink border and prominence of a female character on each side (Wonder Woman, Batgirl, Supergirl, Catwoman) was lost on me at the time. And to think I passed up the Superman: The Movie lunch box for a GIRL'S lunchbox!

                I had a metal super powers and a plastic batman lunch box before I went the lunch money route.

                  Well, my mom didn't believe in lunch boxes. Before entering 4th grade, my friend gave me her old Bobby Sherman lunchbox, and her sister gave me a plain red thermos. That's the only one I ever have. Which is why I collect them now. I have SMDM, Classic Star Trek, Star Trek TNG, Fame, Knight Rider, The Monkees, Tom Corbett: Space Cadet, The Hardy Boys, 2 GIJoe ones, and Schoolhouse Rock.

                  Yes, I can see I believe that it's magic
                  If your mission is magic your love will shine true."

                      I sometimes had to use my sister's Partridge Family lunchbox. The only one I can remember getting of my own was a Kung Fu lunchbox. I loved that thing!

                        The school I attended in Southern California didn't serve a hot lunch - everyone brought their lunch and ate outside on picnic tables.

                        I got a different lunchbox every year - here's what I can remember (there were more, but I can't recall them):

                        Disney's Jungle Book
                        Road Runner and Coyote (my favorite)
                        Scooby Doo (the one with headless horsemen)
                        Marvel Superheroes
                        Disney's Robin Hood

                          I remember three I had. Kung-Fu,Space:1999 and Star Wars. Around fifth grade I didn't use a lunchbox as much. I do know one thing, when I watched Welcome Back Kotter,I always wanted Arnold Horseshack's Planet of the Apes lunchbox.
