How could we forget USA for Africa's super-collaboration charity hit? There are so many stars on this roster that I can't even begin to name them. And anyway, you have to watch the video to get the full effect of all the charity.

please remember the 49th street galleria

I mostly remember the exterior architecture of this Murray, Utah wonderland. It was like a futuristic, space-age castle. Inside it had everything a family entertainment center could need: rides, go-karts, air hockey, a bowling alley, skating, miniature golf, some sort of baseball, and probably way more that I can't think of. I remember it being so big and so cool that figured I could never fully utilize all it had to offer. I guess that came true, because now it's a huge buffet.

I also remember wanting desperately to go a Crystal Gale concert there because it was happening exactly on my fourth or fifth birthday, but then again that may have had nothing to do with the 49th Street Galleria.

please remember pogs

Seriously the weirdest trend ever.
