No matter if its 10th or 50th reunion:

-Don't expect that old heart throb crush spark you had to look anywhere near the same as she did back then. I remember at several of my reunions thinking ahead remembering what they would look like and lets just same time hadn't been kind to most of them at all
-Do expect to say to yourself, "Did I reeeely hit that back then??"
-Most of the guys I knew held up waaaay better than the ladies did

All those girls who rejected you are now gas bags. Bask in the glory of karma.
This. I had my 50 year reunion 3 years ago. Those girls that were smoking hot in high school were just old Grandmas now. It was had to figure out who was who. Name tags are a must. With that being said we had a great time and enjoyed seeing everyone. We have quite a few that had already died and have had several more die since the reunion. Take it all in, as it’s the last time you will be seeing some of them.

Any good SPS advice?
Get drunk'ern hell. Say the stuff you really wanted to say to them when you were in school but didn't. Afterall, it could be the last time you see some of them, so what if you piss them off.

Here's the thing about class reunions. You stay in touch with the people you cared about anyway. There's probably a reason you haven't seen or spoken to some of them in 50 years.

You're going to be shocked at how young some look and how old some look. A guy I didn't think would make thru dinner is still kickin and old close friend who was the youngest looking guy there died a couple of years later. We had a great time and you will too . Enjoy !

Maybe a fine idea!

Be careful what you say and sure of who you are talking to, if you don't want to make people mad. When I went to my 10 year reunion 30 years ago, some of the teachers were there. This one woman who looked a hard rough 55-60 came up and started talking to me. After a few minutes, I said, "I'm but sorry I don't recognize you, what is your name and class did I have you for?" It turned out to be a girl that graduated with me. She was good looking in high school but had been drinking, doing drugs and "partying with the boys" since the eighth grade. It caught up to her hard and fast. Let's just say she was not amused with my question.
