This Week in 80’s History

Posted on July 22, 2023

Let’s take a look at what this week in the decade of decadence looked like! It was on this week in:

1984 – MTV Aired the Live WWF Event “The Brawl to End It All”

1987 – Guns N’ Roses Released Their Debut Album (Appetite for Destruction) The Highest Selling Debut Album of All Time selling over 30 million copies world wide!

1987 – For my money one of the more underappreciated 80’s comedies Summer School starring Mark Harmon and Kirstie Alley Premiered in Theaters

1988 – The worst sequel in movie history….Caddyshack II Premiered in Theaters. Whoever thought that was a good idea still owes the public a massive apology.
